Having danced from the ages of 3 to 19, Erica was accepted into a performing arts high school where she studied ballet and modern dance styles. Erica’s weight struggles began after she got married and had kids. Her two sons (ages 2 and 3) are sadly following in her footsteps and learning poor eating habits. At 232.7 lbs, she fears that if she doesn’t take control of her own life now, her sons will develop health issues. She’s hoping "Dance Your A** Off" will give her the tools she needs to change her life.
