I'm Aliia Pushilina, and I've been dancing my entire conscious life, starting at the ageof 7. After completing school, I pursued a dance degree at a university inAmerica. Due to life circumstances, I couldn't stay in the USA, and instead, Ispent three years studying in Russia, specializing in ballet, folk dance, andcontemporary choreography, ultimately earning my qualification as a danceteacher.

I also danced at the Mirror Dance Theater,taught children, and attended various dance workshops in Russia, America, andGermany.With two daughters—one teaching contemporary dance at our studio and the otherdancing herself.

Upon arriving in Germany in 2018, I quickly noticed that pursuing dance insmall towns and villages is often challenging, requiring children to travel tolarger cities. This led me to the decision to start teaching dance inStörnstein. My proposal immediately caught attention, revealing that manychildren would love to dance close to home.Working with children and instilling in them a love for dance brings me immensepleasure. I hope that all children in small towns and villages will have theopportunity to dance.
