Aurora is from Italy. She trained at the Conservatory of Valencia and on the Academy of Northern Ballet's Professional Graduate Programme. She joined Northern Ballet in 2019
I was born and raised in Florence, Italy.
I was five years old when I took my first ballet class.
I first trained at Ballet Centre, a professional school in Florence. At the age of 15 I moved to Spain to train at the Conservatory of Valencia with the teacher Rafael Darder. After my graduation in Spain I joined the Professional Graduate Programme at the Academy of Northern Ballet.
I would really like to dance in The Great Gatsby. I love the choreography and the story. It would be something very different from what I've done before.
What I've always loved about being a dancer is the stage experience. The emotion I feel when I am on stage is incredible, I forget about real life and I can be someone else for a moment. What I also like about it is travelling all over the world and getting in touch with new people and new cultures.
I think it would be nice to see the film Moulin Rouge adapted into a ballet.
One of my favourite books is Ciò che inferno non è by Alessandro D'Avenia.
A good Italian pizza.
What I love doing to relax is going to the beach and sunbathing; the sound of the sea makes me feel calm and peaceful. I also like reading in nature.
If I wasn't a dancer I would still be playing the violin and maybe I would be a musician.
