Fenia, after completing her first Postgraduate Diploma

dancer and gave many performances around the world
from Italy to North Korea, working with renowned dance
companies. In 2013-2014 she had the role of “Velma” in
famous musicals West Side Story, which toured throughout the United Kingdom and gave 250 performances.
Elena studied for two more years at London Contemporary Dance School, specializing in choreography and performance of contemporary dance. In her second graduate was a member of the dance group “Edge”. She worked
with some of the most renowned choreographers in the
UK (Trisha Brown, Ben Wright, Yael Flexer) and toured

The girls, during their stay in England worked with renowned professional dancers and choreographers and
participated in many artistic events that included music videos, fashion shows and other artistic projects.
Since September 2014 the girls divide their time between Greece and abroad, as their professional obligations require their presence in both. In November 2014
they did the official opening of TedX Athens 2014 with a
choreography they inspired and also directed. The first
two months of 2015 they collaborated with the Department of Social Anthropology of the University of Birmingham and created the short film «Blind», a work that
was intended to portray through movement the daily
routine of a blind person. At the same time they created
and present their own choreographed works at various
Club Theaters in Greece and abroad and also worked as
fitness models. This October, they began collaborating
with some top Greek stars as Sakis Rouvas and Onirama, dancing in their shows. Now they are working with
Incandescence Circus Theater in England and at the beginning of 2016 they will be back to Greece. Generally,
their life always includes a lot of travelling but whatever
they do and wherever they are, they are also training
and spending daily time to the gym to keep fit. Fitness
training is their next big love after dancing. The 䁅ɔ)
