Driven by a thirst for exploration and artistic growth, Thais's dance odyssey began at the tender age of three, as she embarked on their classical ballet training, laying the foundation for a lifelong passion for movement and expression.
As her artistic journey unfolded, our director ventured into various dance genres, exploring the realms of commercial dance, contemporary styles, and the vibrant rhythms of Brazilian regional dance. This diverse exposure enriched her dance vocabulary and nurtured her versatility as a performer.

Thais completed a Teacher Training in Fusion Belly Dance (known by Tribal Fusion Belly Dance), Complimented her studies with Raks Sharki, Datura Style and FCBD® and was highly influenced by Jamilla Salimpour, John Compton, Masha Archer, Mardi Love , Rachel Brice, Zoe Jakes and recently travelled to South America to teach workshops in Brazil and participated in a Choreography and Performance Intensive with Zoe Jakes at Fusion Festival Brasil held by Joline Andrade with over 60 professional dancers and 4 countries.
