I find a constant source of inspiration in working with people
I started dancing forró in London back in 2014. The unique mix of styles, teachers, and the diverse community I was a part of, became a constant source of inspiration and learning. It provided a vast playground to grow as a dancer and mover. In 2017, I joined the Chinedu's Forró Foundations teaching team.
My way to Zürich
Fast forward 12 months, I moved to Zürich and joined Dj Sampa in producing and organising forró events through our organisation, Forró Vinyl. Our cultural association promotes forró through vinyl culture, DJing, and dance workshops. We organize regular monthly events in Zürich and an annual festival called Forró Vinyl Festival. I teach regularly in Zürich at the university TanzQuotient (ETH and UZH), at TanzWerk101 and at my school: Passo a Passo.
I receive ongoing mentorship and coaching by Sheila Santos.
My life as a mover and dancer has been shaped by her practice of hip hop as a teenager and Capoeira in my twenties. I'm a UX Designer by trade.
I recently accomplished a the completion of Balanced Body Pilates Teacher Training and I'm a qualified Somatic Yin Yoga Teacher.
