On May 23rd, 2026, Teatro Brancaccio in Rome became the stage of a dream. The students of Our Dance Studio’s ballet choreography workshop, with the extraordinary guidance of M° Valeria Pala, enchanted the National Final of the 2026 Danze Italia Competition.
Performing M° Pala’s choreography “Dance of the Reed Flutes”, the talented young dancers demonstrated not only excellent technical preparation, but also the expressive maturity of true professionals.
True dancers on and off stage: this trip was a complete life experience, filled with beautiful moments of sharing, from the laughter during the trip to the concentration in the dressing rooms, up to the final celebrations.
Accompanying and supporting the girls every step of this adventure, with M° Pala, was the school’s Artistic Director, M° Gaia Landoni, confirming the importance of a solid artistic direction able to guarantee and maintain the high quality of teaching and training at Our Dance Studio.
An exceptional jury composed of dance bigs – Luciano Cannito, Giordano Orchi, Fabrizio Prolli, Spillo, and Danilo Ravnic—celebrated the undisputed caliber of our students with a lot of awards:
• First Place – Junior Group Ballet Category
• FIRST PLACE OVERALL – Junior Category 2026
A breathtaking result, especially considering the staggering numbers of this edition: 12 countries involved and 170,000 participants!
This success is the perfect culmination of a fabulous academic year, which saw Our Dance Studio shine in every style—from ballet to modern, from hip-hop to heels—and in every category, from the youngest in the kids’ category to the seniors, collecting podiums and awards everywhere.
But we’re not stopping there: we’re already ready for a new, grandiose adventure… The new 2026/27 academic year awaits us to take Our Dance Studio even higher!
