Erica Eichleay

Erica has been immersed in dance her whole life, influenced by her mother, who was a professional belly dancer in the New York cabaret scene of the 1960s. During her college years, she trained primarily in modern dance. Erica has since explored styles ranging from swing to belly dance, but has dedicated her longest and deepest study to flamenco, which she began in 2010 under the guidance of Rosetta Magdalen. Over the years, she has had the privilege of learning from many talented artists, including Chiara Mangiameli and several artists with Ensemble Español.
