Karla Garcia was part of the top 7 female dancers in Season Five of Fox's So You Think You Can Dance. The 24-year-old was born in Oxon Hill, MD. From learning traditional Philippine folk dances, she went on to dance for the National Tour of WICKED, the Broadway run of HOT FEET, and the 2009 VH1 Divas Live show behind Jordin Sparks. She is also a member of the Boogie Bots Crew (from MTV's America's Best Dance Crew, Season 2). She has a BFA in dance and a minor in Journalism from New York University's Tisch School of the Arts. She is former captain of International Filipino Association at NYU's hip hop team (which branched off to become "Epic Motion"). Other credits include performing in Carnival Choreographer's Ball NY and LA, and a series of Lucille Roberts Fitness commercials. Now residing in Brooklyn, New York, she teaches and choreographs at select studios all over the east coast and continues to perform. Karla constantly strives for creative growth, as she aims to combine influences from her technical background with different textures of contemporary, jazz, and hip hop. She believes that dance is an evolving art, with room for new ideas, bold innovation and a myriad of cultural influences. She is currently represented by Clear Talent Group.
