pursuing her passion ever since, having changed
several studios in the process. Aside from numerous

Andrea has also competed at the World Dance

Poland, amongst so many talented dancers
from around the world, and helped
bring home 2 Gold, 1 Silver and 1

months, Andrea is
Working on her technique and strength, attending
several reputable workshops and intensives, while
also giving back to the community by performing
at the Toronto International Dance Festival and the
Toronto International Youth Dance Festival. Through
the fall, outside of the regular studio hours, Andrea
will be training with the Toronto International Ballet
Theatre to perform in “The Nutcracker” at the Meridian
Hall in Toronto (ex Sony center) in December 2019.
Aside from Dance, Andrea is also exploring her
potential in acting and modelling, having just recently
