The music starts, the lights flash on and
the stage is uncovered. It’s the last call to places and I can feel everyone’s
adrenaline going through the roof. My heart rate increases, my stomach is
filled with butterflies, and standing in the wings of the stage, I
wait for my cue to begin dancing. Ballet had been part of my life for over
nineteen years. Almost two decades of music and dance
combining together to create an unspoken language that allows me to tell
stories with my body, and where every single character of those stories, will
always reflect part of who I am.
The way I dance not only represents the
unique style associated to the academy I went to, but it also says a lot about
me and how dance had influenced my life. Watching some of the best dancers in
the world and knowing that some of then come from the same place I come, had
made me always try hard and dream big. Ballet has taught me to persevere and to
always find a way to improve, not just as a dancer, but also as a human being.
