Erika Abalhanova

Hi! I’m Erika, a second-year Maths student, and I’m running to be your next Chair of Dance Company.

Dance has always been a huge part of my life. I started rhythmic gymnastics at 4, transitioned into competitive dance at 13, and being part of Dance Company has honestly been one of the highlights of my time at uni.

As Chair, I want to build on what we already do so well. That means supporting our directors to deliver strong, structured training, keeping communication clear and organised behind the scenes, and making sure every dancer feels valued and motivated. I’d love to keep pushing our standards at competitions while protecting the supportive, fun environment that makes this team special.
