Major League Baseball's first all-male dance team, the Marlins Manatees made their BIG debut on Opening Day, Monday, March 31, 2008, at Dolphin Stadium before thousands of Florida Marlins fans. Since then, the Manatees have become South Florida's hottest dancing sensation, appearing in almost every major newspaper around the country and on hit TV shows like NBC's Today Show, CNN Headline News, Inside Edition and more. Led by seasoned choreographer, Vanessa Martinez-Huff, the Marlins Manatees are a plus-size group of guys whose age ranges are almost as wide as their waist size. Grooving between innings to everything from hip-hop and rock to disco and salsa, the Marlins Manatees admit that fame is nice, but the reaction they get from fans after each performance, and the camaraderie amongst the team is the best part of the gig. Catch the Marlins Manatees performing at Friday and Saturday home games during the Florida Marlins' regular season.
