Julia Lupașcu is a dancer, choreographer, and artistic director from Romania, currently based in London. She has a mixed background in dance and drama, finding herself at the intersection of the two. In Romania she has collaborated with theatres both as a dancer and as a movement director. She is currently freelancing, as creator and performer, working in London and across Europe. Julia is constantly broadening her network, developing collaborations with experts from diverse fields, such as film, fashion, theatre or science. Imagery and emotion are key to her work and practice, being inspired by topics that are always relevant to the human condition, approached with authenticity and vulnerability.

During the programme she worked with project leaders such as Dickson Mbi Company, Alexander Whitley Dance Company, Theo Clinkard, Steve Kirkham, Holly Blakey, Hannes Langolf, Seke Chimutengwende, Benjamin Jonsson, Rakesh Sukesh and Alleyne Dance under the course leadership of Tom English, Tina Afiyan Breiova and Dr Andrew Sanger, working closely with individual mentor Kenny Wing.
