About LAVIDA STUDIO
" My grandma loved dancing. She never was formally trained. I often found myself dancing with her around the living room to her favorite free and life-loving Gypsy music, full of joy and laughter. I was young, too young to remember the details, but wrapping myself into a curtain, putting mom’s heels on, and pretending to be a beautiful dancer apparently was my thing. I’ve been telling my mom “I want to dance” since before I could even pronounce those words clearly.When I was 8 years old, my mom finally got a chance to bring me to a local dance company to sign me up for the beginning of dance season. They were holding an audition for a youth ballroom dance troop, which was popular in those days in Moscow (Russia). Oh, this day was the day I’d been waiting for! My heart was pumping with joy and anxiety at the same time. How could it not be? A few days prior, I had hysterically cried watching a ballroom dance competition on TV from the overwhelm of the strong, positive emotions music and dance created within me. My mom had to change the channel to calm me down.
