Born and trained in Friuli Venezia Giulia, she start by studying academic dance (ballet, modern and contemporary). At the same time, she continued her art studies and graduated in fashion design. A connection that influences her artistic vision and her aesthetic tastes.
She approaches dance without distinction of gender and uses dance as a communication vehicle.
She uses the body as a tool and material and as such she applies it in possible declinations.
If she started looking for and studying rules, structures and schemes in academic dance, she then moved to another “zone” of the “dance” universe where she could discover other rules, structures, schemes. This path leads her to mix, hybridize languages, schemes, structures and look for new images.
From the meeting with Giovanni, Claudia decides to study the techniques derived from breakdance and together with Giovanni founded the association which, in 2019 takes the definitive name of Compagnia Bellanda Ets. Claudia is completely dedicated to the company and her experiences and results converge with those of Compagnia Bellanda: she participates in several national and international festivals, in which she debuts as a dancer but also as a choreographer.
Together with Giovanni Leonarduzzi, she received several awards in international contemporary dance contests and competitions such as the Choreography36 – International Choreographic Contemporary Competition in Hannover (where she won the first prize) , the Copenhagen International Choreographic Competition, CICBUNY Burgos, Stray Birds Dance Platform and others and in 2023 she created a duet for the german dance company Mir Dance Company, directed by Giuseppe Spota.
