A little about me
Hi! I’m Makayla Kanerviko and I’m from Syracuse, New York. I am currently a senior at Elon University pursuing a B.F.A. in Dance Performance & Choreography and a B.S.B.A in Entrepreneurship. I focus on classical ballet and modern technique while also training extensively in areas such as jazz, tap, and partnering work. During my time at Elon, I have performed in the Fall Dance Concert, Dancing in the Landscape, Spring Dance Concert, Black History Month Dance Concert, and various other student works. This past summer I was fortunate enough to travel to Italy and perform at the Florence Dance Festival in a piece by Lauren Kearns.
REVIEWS
“The production also showcased some impressive featured dancers…Makayla Kanerviko - who often performs and stands out in Syracuse City Ballet productions as a member of the corps de ballet and as a soloist - lights up the stage in Peter Pan as the always spunky and feisty Tinkerbell. Kanerviko shows off skills beyond her years as everyone's favorite fairy. Her professionalism and passion made her performance stand out as a highlight.”
“Makayla Kanerviko glowed as the Sapphire.”
“Clara and Fritz are swept away to a dreamland - the Land of Snow. At this point, Makayla Kanerviko delivered a breathtaking performance as the Snow Queen and student dancers portrayed dancing snowflakes with grace and beauty.”
