Background

Hi, I'm Erika. I was born and raised in Lima, Peru. My dance life began with ballet when I was five.  I grew up immersed in dance to rhythms like Festejo, Lando, Zamacueca, Marinera, Huayno, Salsa, Cumbia, and so much more. 

I have spent my adult life living (and dancing) in southern Arizona,

 

Some of my favorite places to travel include SoCal, Miami, and beautiful Mexico. 

 

Rhythm, movement, and creativity run deep in my roots and have taken different forms throughout my life. They are ever-present.

Vision 

To share my culture through music and dance. To teach, learn, build strength, have fun, and be more together.
