ALEXA VILLEGA

​

     Alexa Villega was born in Manhattan, New York and raised in Danbury, Connecticut starting dance at the age of four. After years of doing it for fun, she began to take it seriously and turned over to competitive dance at the age of 12 where she trained at Seven Star School of Performing Arts under Nicole Aravena, Jaclyn Yarusso, and Anita Intrieri. There, she began taking classes in many styles including ballet, jazz, tap, contemporary, and hip hop shaping her to be a well rounded dancer.

​

    Upon graduating from SSSPA in May 2020, she Committed to Pace University's BFA Commercial Dance program under Rhonda Miller, Scott Jovovich, and Lauren Gaul to continue her diverse dance training and help transition her into the professional world. Alexa's journey at Pace has been filled with an immense amount of growth, knowledge, and opportunities, learning from many professionals in the dance industry who have helped mold her into the dancer she is today. During her junior semester in LA, she signed Bloc Talent Agency NYC & LA.

     Throughout her time at Pace, she has taken three different choreography classes (Choreo 1, Choreo for Camera, Advanced Choreo) where she gained a love for choreography and currently creates on young artists at local dance studios as well as her peers from pace.

     Outside of dance, Alexa enjoys going to the gym, thrifting, and spending quality time with family and friends. Alexa graduated from pace in May 2024 and is excited to step into such an expansive city and work as a bi-coastal dancer/choreographer.
