Hoang-Anh (Ashley) Eng started her dance training at Bonnie Siscoe’s School of Dance in Houston, TX at the age of 3. In 2011, she entered into the pre-professional company at Amy Blake’s Academy of dance and trained in ballet, modern, jazz, contemporary, musical theatre, and other various genres of dance.
In 2014, Ashley began attending the High School for the Performing and Visual Arts (HSPVA) and was a company member of the Houston Repertory Dance Ensemble (HRDE). At HSPVA, Ashley had the opportunity to train in a high focus curriculum that included techniques of ballet, modern, tap, improvisation, composition, musical theatre, jazz, and modern partnering.
At HSPVA, she learned repertory from choreographers like Christian Warner, Gregory Dolbashian, and Michael Foley. Zachary Tang, Jeremy Arnold, Allie Kronick, and Angelica Stiskin were a few of the esteemed choreographers working with HRDE. She attended summer sessions at the Alvin Ailey School of Dance, Northwest Dance Project, and Hubbard Street Dance Chicago. Since her exposure to modern dance, Ashley has started to explore the integration of floor-bounded work with contemporary focused movements into her dance vocabulary.
She is currently attending Boston Conservatory at Berklee as a fourth year student, and has performed works by Kate Weare, Victor Quijada, Maleek Washington, Ruka Hatua-Saar White, and William Issac. She has choreographed, collaborated and participated in various projects and short films with local Boston artists, rising musicians for their music videos, and fellow Berklee and Conservatory students.
Ashley is currently an administrative assistant for Midday Movement Series, a Boston based non-profit dance organization. She is excited to continue performing concert works and exploring unfamiliar movement styles to enhance and enrich into her experience with the art of dance.
