Born and raised in Nicosia, Cyprus, Andrea trained from a young age at a local dance school where she developed knowledge and skills in ballet, modern, and contemporary dance. She moved to London in 2019 to start her professional dance training at Trinity Laban Conservatoire of Music and Dance, studying contemporary dance.

In 2022 she graduated from her bachelor’s degree with First-Class Honours. During her

studies, she worked closely with different choreographers in the creation of several pieces. She performed works by Candoco Associated artist Joel Brown and Stephanie Schober, as well as restaging Steve Paxton’s ‘Satisfying Lover’, directed by Tony Thatcher. She also participated in a production of MuZo Dance Theatre Company, called ‘Wallpaper’, at the Resolution Dance Festival 2022 in London, choreographed and directed by Giulia Roversi. In August 2022 she continued her training in Italy at Nuova Officina Della Danza, where she completed two professional level dance programmes – ICD and Nuova X – working with international choreographers, including Jonathan Fredrickson.

Outside of dance, Andrea enjoys exploring other visual art forms, mainly photography and drawing, and their integration in dance practices. She loves exploring all parts of nature and embarking on adventures.
