💃 MEET OUR DANCE TEAMS 🕺

🪩TEAM: Victoria Ciani from Astounding Heights Dance Academy, Tammy Rickey from The Frozen Shoppe and Chaz Lucas from Ink Cisive

Victoria Ciani has loved dance for as long as she can remember. She began dancing at just two years old and entered the competitive world by age four, quickly discovering it was more than a hobby, it was her passion.

With over 18 years of training in styles including hip hop, jazz, ballet, tap, acro, lyrical, contemporary, and musical theatre, Victoria has developed strong technique and a confident understanding of performance. Along the way, she earned a dance scholarship for an intensive program, performed in a Toronto Argos pre-game show, and trained with professional dancers from The Next Step.

Now an instructor at Astounding Heights Dance Studio, Victoria brings her passion, creativity, and positive energy into every class. She is incredibly excited to be part of Dancing with the Stars Quinte West and has loved beginning the journey of choreographing and coaching her team. She’s looking forward to watching them grow, have fun, and bring their routine to life on stage!

💃Tammy Rickey, owner of The Frozen Shoppe in Trenton, is thrilled to step onto the dance floor and be part of this year’s Dancing with the Stars experience in support of the community.

🕺As the owner of Ink Cisive, mobile and in-shop tattoo services, Chaz will be taking his commitment to clients across studios as he hopes to shine at this year's Dancing with the Stars Quinte.
