Born in Belize and raised in Southern California, Bianca studied at Southland Ballet Academy in Fountain Valley, CA. From the age of 3, she studied under the guidance of Salwa Rizkalla and then at age 14, being promoted to a trainee with Festival Ballet Theater.

 

She had many opportunities to perform solo and corps work in full length ballets such as Sleeping Beauty, Don Quixote, Swan Lake and The Nutcracker as well as taking part in world premier contemporary repertoire set by Andrea Schermoly and Josie Walsh.

 

Summers included training at SBA with director Christopher Powney from the Royal Ballet School UK, YAGP Founder Larissa Saveliev as well as training at the Joffrey Academy of Dance in Chicago, IL. Bianca graduated Magna Cum Laude from California State University Fullerton with a BA in Dance.

 

She trained under Muriel Joyce, Lisa D. Long, Debra Noble, and Alvin Rangel-Alvarado as well as various guest choreographers from throughout the country, which led to her participation in the Southern California American College Dance Association Festival.

 

After graduating in May of 2023, she danced for a season with Anastasis Ballet Company, a Christian ballet company based in the San Francisco Bay Area. Bianca is delighted for her first season with Ballet 314 and the new experiences that await her!
