Valentina

Beautiful, classical and sensual lines that will entice and tantalize the audience in a burlesque pointe performance. Acts will be performed en pointe may include a ballet barre, chair, isis wings or additional props. Music, theme and costuming can be tailored to meet the theme and needs of the event,

Born and raised in Philadelphia, I am a classically trained dancer who currently brings legs, lines and love to burlesque acts (en pointe and in heels too!) as Valentina.

I am burlesque performer at SAX Dinner Theater and Lounge in DC, Monarque in Baltimore, and performs at numerous venues in DC and Baltimore. I continue to train vigorously with a number of renowned teachers and choreographers at The Washington Ballet, Maryland Youth Ballet, Joy of Motion Dance Center, STEPS, and is a member of Laura Edwards Dance Company.

I currently teach at Abundant Dance and Artistry Studios and The Washington School of Ballet. My unique combination of classical ballet technique and artistry allows dancers to explore the alignment, beauty and strength of their movement and bodies.
I have a Masters in Public Policy from The George Washington University and Bachelor’s degree in Political Science and a minor in Dance from Muhlenberg College.
