Eleonora Accalai

I’m Eleonora, born and raised in Milan, Italy. As a kid, I’d dance for hours in front of the mirror in my small bedroom, with the music from cassette tapes of those days. But funny enough, becoming a professional dancer wasn’t exactly “on the plan” at first. The path was full of early challenges, but deep down, I knew I’d dance no matter what, even if life had led me somewhere else.

After graduating in Performing Arts from M.A.S. Music, Art & Show in 2017, I took the leap abroad, diving into new dance languages in Hungary and Poland. I collaborated with Budapest Dance Theatre (HU) and Teatr Pieśń Kozła (PL), but it was Budapest that stole my heart. Living abroad pulled me away from the familiar, but it also taught me how to thrive in the unknown.

Today, being part of Eva Duda Dance Company is a joy: get to share this unpredictable yet beautiful journey with an inspiring team of passionate people.
