MEMORABLE MOMENT IN BALLET
“I remember dancing Shane Urton’s pas de deux “Devotion” in 2023. It was a surprise, because I was not supposed to be part of the project and joined the rehearsals on the way. I enjoyed every second in studio with my colleagues, and the fact that I was actually given the chance to dance the duet for one of the shows. I think the fact that a choreographer could trust me enough to carry his piece, even though he saw me for only a short time, gave me a lot of courage to keep on being true to myself as a dancer and person, and the peaceful yet powerful moment shared on stage with my  partner validated my choice to take dancing as a path of life”.
