What’s your name and where are you in the world?

I’m Valentina Sicari, I am Italian and I teach in London.

What kind of dance to you currently offer?

I currently offer Ballet, Contemporary and Modern Jazz.

What got you into dance?

Since I was a little girl, I have had a passion for dance, movement and acting with a dream to become a dancer and actress. I started my journey in my own town, Sicily, where I trained in Ballet, Modern/Jazz, Contemporary, while also trying different styles such as Flamenco, Hip Hop, Salsa and Afro Dance. I danced and acted also having leading roles in Theatre in my city. From 2005 to 2008 I taught Jazz and Contemporary dance to kids and teenagers, also choreographing pieces for the final performance in Theatre. In 2013 I moved to London to study English and train in the most prestigious dance studios in London, such as Pineapple Studios, The Place, and the Central School of Ballet. I performed in London with Zootrophic, worked at Secret Cinema and performed action roles within films. In 2018 I moved to Paris to dance in Disneyland and in 2020 I specialised in Contemporary Dance at the Centre National de la Danse, obtaining the qualification of ‘Professeur de Danse’. From 2020 to 2023 I taught Ballet, Modern and Contemporary Dance. While teaching I danced and acted in a few shows in my own town in Sicily, such as Turandot Opera, Scatola and Hello from Bertha. I really love teaching dance and creating new choreographies and I believe that dance makes life more beautiful! My teaching technique emphasizes an understanding of the body, mind and movement with a positive and energetic vibe. Now, I am back in London and enthusiastic to be starting a new chapter in my life teaching dance and also into more dance opportunities.

What do you love about the area you live and work in?

I live in runcorn when I’m not at university and there isn’t much to do. However, this summer I have been going around my local area teaching dance classes! Liverpool is much better for the culture and dance classes.

I take classes through my university and classes run by other companies. I particularly like to take heels classes that are run by an amazing dance teacher. (LA Choreography). I always take advantage of the free and accessible theatre on my campus, that always has guest choreographers and performances.

I have been apart of the Hope Performance project with my university, that creates and facilitates workshops for dance schools and colleges around our area and have been very successful with it. I have also worked with a charity called Sefton Children’s Trust that provides children with a week’s adventure holiday! I was the sole leader of the dance workshops and put together a whole show at the end of the week!

Why did you want to work with Popdance?

So I can have a head start with teaching with the support of Popdance!
