About me
Erika Thompson is a choreographer and performer with a professional foundation in stage performance and animation production. Her work blends storytelling and visual clarity with structured, production-aware execution.
With over a decade of performance experience and years working within animation pipelines, she understands how movement translates from stage to screen — crafting choreography that works within technical realities such as rig limitations, range of motion constraints, and staging considerations.
Erika creates inclusive, confidence-building environments for performers of all ages and skill levels, adapting choreography to support diverse abilities while maintaining strong artistic standards. Organized and collaborative, she delivers movement that enhances narrative while respecting rehearsal and production timelines.
She is also the founder of Broadway Vibes, a movement-based training platform that brings theatrical storytelling to adult performers through structured, high-energy workshops.
