Ashveena
Shoodihal

My name is Ashveena Shoodihal, I am a contemporary dancer, dance teacher and author.

I was born in Sicily but grew up in Milan, and I have Mauritian origins by my

parents.

I started learning dance from primary school in little realities in Milan, like courses led by the oratory and after school-sports associations.

I carried with me this passion while growing up exploring different kinds of dance, focusing

more on street dances such as hip-hop.

In 2017, I came across CIMD International Center of Movement and Dance, directed by Franca Ferrari where I discovered a different use of the body and started my professional course in contemporary dance.

The school offeres a specific dance program focused on movement research and performing arts. Indeed, after 10 years of practice I can affirm that research on movement is my path, and is a discipline that never gets me bored by definition.

I later discovered technique and contemporary dance aesthetics studying with Serena Zanconato with Micron.

As an artist I try to foster creation in performative arts with research on movement  while sharing my knowledge through teaching.
