Ashleigh Di Lello

Ashleigh Di Lello (Dancer) began dancing at the early age of three. After five years of company work in ballet, jazz and hip hop, Ashleigh fell in love with ballroom dancing when she was twelve, becoming a DanceSport Junior Latin Champion and a United States Junior American Latin Finalist. At the age of thirteen, Ashleigh became very sick with a life-threatening illness that she would battle through for the next four and a half years. After overcoming this illness, she suffered a serious back injury when trying to return to dance and spent the following year and a half in rehab. After a six-year break, Ashleigh returned to ballroom dancing and has since become a three-time DanceSport Amateur Latin Champion and a United States Amateur Latin Finalist. Ashleigh has performed and taught in nineteen different countries and has most recently made it all the way to the finale of the Fox television show So You Think You Can Dance with her husband Ryan.
