This episode of The Dancer’s Dialogue details Luciana Voltolini’s journey from her Bolshoi school days in her native country of Brazil to becoming a soloist at Staatsballett Berlin. Voltolini discusses her challenges and how she overcame them through the help of her community, her mother and the Brazilian government. Pilates plays a major role in Voltolini’s life and she explains its utility in injury recovery and as a complementary activity to classical ballet training. Additionally, we touch on her approach to preparing for the characters of her dance roles, mental health and the importance of support systems, choosing to become a mother, and how to maintain resilience in the face of a professional career in ballet performance.The Dancer’s Dialogue is a project in association with DanceApply.com.
