Workshop on July 16-26 .
The Pollino Danza Festival also offers an immersive program dedicated to aerial dance, designed to accompany participants in a technical, physical, and expressive evolution through fabric, hoop, aerial duet, physiotechnics, and movement exploration.
The program alternates specific training, development of stage skills and choreographic workshops, with a gradual progression that leads up to the final gala on July 26th.

Curated by Erika Spaltro and the Hale Bopp Danza staff
Born in Rome, she began studying Classical and Modern Dance at the age of three, earning a Bachelor’s Degree from the National Academy of Dance in Rome. She studied and perfected her skills both in Italy and abroad; her training was underpinned by high-caliber artists, including Margherita Parrilla, Raffaele Paganini, Andrè De La Roche, Garrison Rochelle, Frédéric Olivieri, and Daniele Baldi.
Her training allows her to blend the spectacularity of Aerial Dance with the sensitive gestures of Contemporary Dance, creating a unique choreographic style that combines the power of the earth with the evocative power of aerial acrobatics. She is a freelance Ballet Coach, Teacher, and Choreographer in Italy and abroad, and is the Founder and Art Director of the “HBD Company – Gruppo Sperimentale.”
