Bio:⁠
⁠
Thalia is a Canadian performer based in the Netherlands. In 2016, she joined the Nederlands Dans Theater for eight years and began freelancing internationally in 2024. Since then, she has immersed herself in teaching, performing, and creating. She holds a deep appreciation for classical ballet and works to revitalize its traditions through both daily practice and performance. Over the past year, Thalia has focused on creating through improvisation, opening herself to the unknown and allowing this uncertainty to shape her dance, moods, and sensations. Through this exploration, she embraces constant transformation as a practice. As she freelances internationally, these questions continue to evolve and deepen her work.⁠
