MANYA ZHU

Manya Zhu is in the class of 2024, and she's from Princeton, NJ. She's a Computer Science BSE major, with an interest in pursuing a Finance certificate. Manya started dancing ballet at the young age of 4, where she immediately fell in love with the art form. In reality, she probably liked the tutus and pointe shoes, but either way, she continued training for the next 14 years throughout high school. She trained at her home studio, Princeton Dance and Theater, and performed several shows (The Nutcracker, The Snow Queen, Sleeping Beauty, etc.) with PYB. She also learned some flamenco, modern, jazz and hip hop, but definitely considers herself a total bun-head coming into BodyHype. Naturally, she is also a member of Princeton University Ballet.
