Eliana is a NY born and raised aerialist and dancer. She started her studies in classical ballet, and eventually earned her BFA in Dance from Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater/Fordham University. After performing professionally as a ballet dancer for several years, she fell in love with the freedom of aerial and knew she wanted to dive in wholeheartedly.
She performs both feature and ambient acts on lyra, lollipop, hammock, cube, and heart, and has worked with numerous companies around NYC, including Company XIV, Cirque Central, Phoenix Entertainment, AeraDance, and American Circus Theater.
After a decade of teaching dance, Eliana is excited to bring her enthusiasm for technique and share in the growth of the students of the aerial community at Body & Pole!
