Born and raised in Poland, Magda started her dance journey as a street dancer, taking part in numerous competitions, TV programs and shows across Europe as well as training in Ballroom and Musical Theatre. In 2004 Magda discovered a passion for Latin dance, training and performing with a number of world class international instructors. She took part in Adolfo Indacochea and Tania Cannarsa’s student team in London, as well as honing her performance skills under the wings of Terry and Cecile. In 2011, she started performing in the UK and around the world with professional Latin dance company OtraDanz, and continued over eight years until 2019.
