thyr à Paris 🇫🇷✨

From sharing our practice at Centre de Danse du Marais (@centredansemarais) to moving through the streets, studios, museums, and unexpected corners of Paris. Every encounter became part of the process. 🤍

We came to move, exchange, observe, and connect.
And somewhere along the way, new ideas started taking shape.

Something is already in motion.
More to come. 👀✨

The first time I went to Danceworks I took a picture of the door before I walked in, I was so excited and wanted to remember how it looked like in 3 years from that day. Now that this moment came, looking at this picture, and all the other memories I now carry with me from these beautiful time I spent there, I just feel so grateful to have been part of this.

I didn’t expect to meet so many people that I wish to take with me now after graduation, and I am so glad I did. These years wouldn’t have been the same without you.

Lena, Luisa, Esther and Chizu, you stayed with us from beginning to end, always pushing us to become a better version of ourselves, and always believing we can do more, and I am forever grateful for that.

Thank you to my parents who always believed in me and supported me through this journey, and came all the way here to see this last show. I love you and wouldn’t be here without you. And my partner Pedro, who has been by my side every day during the education, thank you for always being there for me.

I leave here some of the memories of this time, but there are so many more that is impossible to show it all.

All my love 🧡
Bia

Today we celebrate Raissa Mamede and the remarkable journey that brought her to our program.

Hailing from Barra Bonita, São Paulo, Brazil, Raissa has been dedicated to dance since the age of four. Her transition to Berlin three years ago was made possible through the support of Tamirys Candido and the TalentSmithy agency. While her path to staying in the program was initially uncertain, Raissa’s talent and resolve ultimately prevailed—and we are so glad it did.

In Her Own Words:
"I moved to Berlin to pursue my dance education, an experience that has deeply shaped me both personally and artistically. I am curious and excited to put into practice everything I have learned, and I am deeply grateful for the people who crossed my path and taught me so much more than technique."

Raissa’s time at DANCEWORKS berlin has been defined by outstanding performance skills and an excellent technique that commands attention. What truly distinguishes Raissa, however, is her extraordinary commitment. Having navigated significant challenges to remain in her education, she has shown a level of maturity and dedication that is truly exemplary.

Raissa, your journey from Barra Bonita to Berlin has been an inspiration. We are proud to have been part of your story. ✨
