EDUCATION

My passion for dance formed from a young age. I began to attend Hungarian Folklore dance classes and quickly became familiar with complicated rhythm patterns, footwork and the basics of partnering. I was happy to travel around the country attending festivals and solo competitions.​

When I turned 14, I moved to Budapest to start my professional training at Dózsa György High School and Vocational School Of Dance. I took a variety of classes including Ballet, Modern techniques, Latin/Ballroom, Jazz, Contact Improvisation, Yoga and Acrobatics. Thanks to our teachers' support we got to perform our own choreographed pieces on stage twice a year and I got to perform weekly at various events as I became a member of the school's dance company.

After the positive years of high-school I moved to London to widen my perspective of the world of art and dance. Trinity Laban Conservatoire of Music and Dance helped me to prepare for the profession not only technically and physically, but also mentally. My tutors encouraged me to become a creative innovator, who is capable of adapting to any given situation. I practiced to work collaboratively (as well as independently).

PROFESSIONAL YEARS

Since graduation I have been working as a freelance performer/teacher and have discovered that I am drawn to creating choreographies for special occasions. I have been asked by schools to choreograph the graduating classes' performances (a tradition in Hungary) as well as by couples preparing for their wedding day. It is such a special experience to become a small part of people's big life events. I believe experience is key to development, so I am constantly looking to work with new couples and widen my clientele in London.​
