She obtained a Master Degree in Arts Performance at University of Bologna and a postgraduate degree in Benesh Movement Notation at CNSDMP.

Inside a charge of vital energy trapped in a tangle of dust, abandonment, indifference. Thousands of people crossed the imposing space complex in the heart of Naples; Only in 2015 a network of activists has brought to light the immense wealth hidden in Salita Pontecorvo. It 's so that a prison is transformed in the laboratory of all. The Scugnizzo in chains and 'finally freed. And dance.
