Emelie is 16 and has been dancing ballet since she was 4 years old. Her main sport was figure skating since she was 2,5 years old. Ballet was always just a sideline and developed through her role model Tania Condorelli (certified ballet teacher / choreographer) over the years to her great love and passion. On her ballet journey she was accompanied by teachers such as Justo Moret (Theater Dortmund, Volkwang Essen), Irene Vaqueiro Lorenzo (Oper am Rhein, Rosenthal Ballett) and Mahnaz Hankiewicz (American Ballet Theater New York City, Tanzstelle Dortmund) with whom Emelie learned a lot and who always motivated her to believe in her dreams.
The decision to focus entirely on ballet came in 2018 during a private workshop with Galina Ottas (St.Pertersburg), one of the last students of Ms. Vaganova herself. From then on, Emelie trained with a student of Ms. Ottas, Ms. Katja Treger (diploma and dancer from St.Petersburg).
Currently she dances for Indance and trains with Katja Treger, Galina Ottas and Michael Cusumano (ABT, Joffrey Ballet School).
Workshops:
- Kristian Ratevossian (YAGP judge, Vaganova graduation).
- Theater Dortmund: Summer Academy
- Staatsoper Hannover: Rowena Ansell (Royal Ballet School, dance studies and pedagogy)
