Eric Stucky, originally from Portland, OR started training at the age of ten doing dance competitions and by joining a dance team. It wasn’t until high school that he made the choice to train at BodyVox Dance Center in their Junior Artist Generator training program. He had the opportunity to perform with BodyVox’s Main Company in their show The Spin as well as several public performances of Psycho Killer. Stucky continued his dance studies in college and graduated Spring 2020 from Marymount Manhattan College receiving a Bachelor of Arts in Dance with a concentration in Teaching Arts and a minor in Arts Management with a focus in Marketing.

 

At Marymount, he had the privilege of working with several choreographers including; David Parker, Randy James, Elizabeth Roxas-Dobrish and Megan Williams. Stucky also choreographed eight choreographic works during his four years at college.

 

Stucky spent various summers and winters doing workshops with Rioult Dance Company NYC and Batsheva Dance Company in Israel. He spent the summer of 2017 doing outreach in Nicaragua, teaching dance to underprivileged communities and performing for two weeks. Stucky spent spring 2019 training in Israel at Dance Jerusalem for six months while attending Rothberg International School at Hebrew University delving into the Hebrew language and Holocaust History. During his time in Israel, he performed works by Noa Zuk and Roni Chadash at The Suzanne Dellal Center and worked with Batsheva Dance Company dancers in Gaga technique, Methodics, and Repertoire as well as repertory workshops with Vertigo Dance Company.

 

Stucky’s choreography has been performed in Oregon, Washington, New York, Israel, and Nicaragua. His short film, which he choreographed and co-produced 401 Blood on Pointe, has won a total of eight short film/ choreography recognitions. He loves teaching anything from creative movement to improvisation and compositional classes as well as classical modern dance. Stucky currently teaches dance to three- twelve-year-olds through BOLD Arts encouraging open-minded learning through dance and creative movement.
