Martina Fornaro

My name is Martina, I am a professional dancer and passionate dance teacher. I come from Italy, where I began teaching in the school where I started to dance when I was a kid. I got my dance teacher degree in Italy, 2019. 
Later on, in 2021, I made the decision to leave my country and move to London to follow my dream and grow as both a dancer and teacher.

My dance journey has been shaped by training in multiple styles including ballet, jazz, hip hop. I used to be an artistic gymnast from the age of 4 to the age of 16; that year, I decided to end my journey  in gymnastics because of a scholarship that allowed me to train for a year with a musical academy.

The styles I teach are Heels, Smooth Choreography, Commercial, Street Dance, Jazz, Lyrical, and more. I currently teach at Base Dance Studio and at the Manor, at Pineapple Dance Studios and At Your Beat.

My classes are known for their upbeat energy, positive, friendly and supportive vibe. I focus on musicality, execution and performance.
I aim to create a space where dancers feel free to express themselves, feel the passion, take risks, and grow - not just technically, but personally.

I especially love working with kids and young dancers, helping them build confidence and experience the joy of being part of something special through dance. I love to use the movement to inspire, share and connect.
