Ms. Cheka
Meet Ms. Stancheka, (pronounced Stan-shee-kah) or just Cheka! She's a dedicated dance mom who transitioned into an invaluable behind-the-scenes staff member and parent liaison at DICA. Since joining the organization in late 2020, she has truly found a second family here.
As a former high school band "dance girl," Ms. Cheka loves seeing our dancers grow and learn new skills! She's also a huge fan of HBCU majorette dance/auxillary teams, but you might hear her shout "AGGIE PRIDE!" at any moment so that her allegiance is clear.
Ms. Cheka is very hands-on and involved, whether it’s collaborating with the Director and Executive Majorette coach, working on uniforms, building props, emailing [spamming] parents, managing social media, snapping photos, or recording exciting moments. You’ll always find her busy making sure everything runs smoothly and bringing smiles to our dancers' faces!
