About CHERYL BURKE:

With over 20 years dancing experience and several championship titles under her belt, Emmy® nominated professional dancer Cheryl Burke has tangoed and sambaed her way into the hearts of millions. She recently became the show's first professional dancer to appear in the finals seven times and the semi-finals ten times, becoming the champion twice with Emmitt Smith in Season 3 and Drew Lachey in Season 2.

Cheryl first began dancing at the age of six, taking ballet lessons and performing throughout the Bay Area. At 10, she discovered what would be her winning talent, ballroom dancing, and decided to hang up her ballet shoes to begin training in both Standard and Latin ballroom dancing. Outside of the ballroom, Cheryl has been named one of People Magazine's Most Beautiful and often appears in Maxim Magazine's Hot 100 List. She has been seen on the Disney Channel's "Suite Life with Zack and Cody" and appeared in Ne-Yo's music video "Camera Phone." This year, Burke is launching her own line of active wear and workout apparel with QVC.
