Name: Rachel Eichler Birthday: 6-28-89
Hometown: Louisville, Ky
Experience: I started dancing at age three at Accents on Dance and Tumbling, doing tap, ballet, and gymnastics. When I was about ten years old, I began dancing for an All-Star team at a place called Planet Dance, with coach Todd Sharp and Sheryl Knight. I attended Jefferson Country Traditional Middle School (JCTMS) and was on the Dance Team all three years, placing first in numerous competitions, and often even the award for "Grand Champion", meaning the best score out of all divisions. We won the Universal Dance Association (UDA) Nationals in Orlando, Florida in eighth grade for the hip-hop division. I attended Louisville Male High School, and was on the dance team there all four years. My Sophmore year (2005), we won a National championship title in the large hip-hop division. My Senior year, we won two National championship titles in the divisions of small hip-hop and small pom.
