Dance became a central part of her life during her six months there, with the majority of her time spent in classes and socials.

Returning to Europe to complete her Master’s in Management at NOVA Business School in Lisbon, Nina remained determined to continue her dance journey, by simultaneously honing her skills in urban styles like Dancehall Female, Brazilian Funk, Hip Hop, Jazz Funk, Jazz, and Heels. Halfway through her master’s, she moved to Madrid to focus on her dance career, completing a 680-hour professional training in Urban Dance at WOSAP Dance Studio, while finishing her master’s program remotely.
