My Dance Journey

Dance has always been an integral part of my life, shaping my discipline, creativity, and connection to movement. My journey began with classical ballet and evolved into a professional career that bridges both tradition and innovation.

From 2016 to 2018, I trained in classical ballet at the renowned Maria Olenewa Ballet School in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Under the mentorship of esteemed teachers such as Maria Vakhrusheva—former First Ballerina of the Mariinsky Theater and an instructor at the Vaganova Ballet Academy—I refined my technique and developed a deep appreciation for the art of ballet. During this time, I performed iconic repertoires, including Don Quixote and Paquita, which deepened my connection to the elegance and precision of classical dance.

In 2019, I took the next step in my dance journey by joining Area Jeune Ballet Company in Geneva, Switzerland. This chapter marked a significant shift as I expanded my contemporary dance background while continuing to hone my technical skills. Performing professionally in various projects, I had the privilege of working with some of Europe’s most renowned choreographers. These experiences not only challenged me artistically but also deepened my understanding of movement as a powerful form of expression and connection.
