POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

It’s finally time to share this side of my story :)

Not many Thai dancers make it into major European ballet companies.

I started as a dance student in Bangkok until 17 and then English National Ballet School —> first job with Bayerisches Staatsballett and then Opera Ballet Vlaanderen. 14 years on stages. My mom actually told me “5 years and it’s enough just come home :)” lol it just continued.

Then I became a photographer while dancing , now a Rolfer (structural integration | fascia release).
None of it was planned. It just came during this journey There’s no map for this path I made it as I went.

This is the first of many posts where I’ll share how it happened. The dream I actually had as a kid (it wasn’t what you think). The years on stage. Why I picked up a camera. Why I became a Rolfer. And what my life looks like now.
I guess I will I figure out how to tell this story.

Why I’m sharing this

I want to encourage people to keep learning, to try things they haven’t tried. I always thought ballet was it, that I’d dance forever.

And I want Thai (&young)artists who dream of the world stage to know: the path exists.

I have been waiting to post these images of Ruka and Mikio, my best friends. This is one of my favourite series I have captured. The love, the laughter, the genuine feeling they share, you can really see it in these photos. Right ?!?!?

It was also such a fun shoot, we didn’t even realise the park right next to my home was this cute.

Your wedding is coming so soon, and I’m so excited for you both!!!! it’s going to be beautiful🤍

When I meet mountains, my thoughts thin out, my heart widens, and I remember a quieter, truer pace of being.

The best kind of friendship .. @jfkudra the one that just picks up where it left off. Cause 3 years apart didn’t change a thing. Then Almost two weeks in beautiful Munich together and it was everything… :)))

AI can generate a thousand images. It still can’t do a single grand jeté or capture that split seconds where dance and photography meet.

BTS vs the result with these talented dancers from @bayerischesjuniorballett for the last program (june ‘26) that was taken last year.

And more to come … for the next season !!
