VENARIA REALE / dancer / 2018
Dancing has always been my passion, from the moment I started, at the age of five. It was 2007. I can't think of a specific moment in which I realised that this was meant to be my future, I'd rather say I grew up knowing it, as if I was born with this feeling. Though, there have been some experiences that really helped me find my own path in dance. For example a summer camp I attended in Lörrach, Germany. There I met some of the best choreographers in the world and felt an incredible emotion when I discovered the style through which I can really express what I have inside. When I got back home I felt excited and filled with hope for my future. A year later, in 2018, I took part in a performance on stage, and I realised that the emotions I was representing and feeling while dancing reached and deeply touched the audience. That is when I understood that dancing is what really makes me who I am.
