Principal of Bella Star Studios. 

I have had a strong passion for dance from a young age, which deepened when I began my dance teaching career in 2013. With 13 years of experience in the dance industry, I have developed a diverse background in both dance education and performance.

I hold a Diploma of Dance Elite Performance from Jason Coleman’s Ministry of Dance, as well as a Certificate IV in Dance Teaching and Management. I also hold a Diploma in Early Childhood Education and a Certificate IV in Fitness.

Throughout my teaching career, I have taught a wide range of styles, including jazz, hip hop, tap, ballet, contemporary, lyrical, acrobatics, gymnastics, Brazilian samba, and fitness.

One of the most rewarding aspects of managing Bella Star Studios is witnessing the growth, confidence, and happiness that dance brings to our students. I love creating an environment where students can develop their skills, express themselves, and most importantly, enjoy their dance journey.

I have been dancing since I was just three years old and haven’t stopped since! I have been teaching dance since 2018 and have experience teaching a variety of styles, including jazz, ballet, acrobatics, hip hop, and lyrical.

As a Primary School Teacher, I am very passionate about learning and working with children. Teaching dance allows me to combine my love of education with my personal passion for dance.

My favourite style to teach is acrobatics, while my favourite style to perform is lyrical. I love helping students build their confidence, develop their skills, and most importantly, enjoy their dance journey!

I have been dancing since I was 11 years old and have enjoyed exploring a variety of styles, including jazz, hip hop, cheerleading, and aerobics.

 I have competed in State Championships for competition aerobics and have also been involved in numerous stage productions, performing in dancing, singing, and acting roles.

One of the things I love most about dance is the way it allows people to express themselves in ways they may never have imagined possible in everyday life.

I’m so excited to meet all of our little performers and help them develop the same love and passion for dance that I have!

I have been dancing since I was young, training in jazz, tap, and hip hop while performing in annual concerts, competitions, and exams. Dance has always been a special way for me to express myself and is where I feel most confident and happy.

Through dance, I have developed strength, confidence, and valuable skills that I’m excited to share with our students. My favourite dance style to perform is jazz, and I can’t wait to pass on my knowledge and passion for dance.

I’m super excited to be joining the Bella Star Studios team and look forward to meeting all of our wonderful students!

 Dance Teacher

My name is Grace Juliette Galimberti Espinoza,

Dance has been a central part of my life for as long as I can remember, and my passion for movement, creativity, and performance continues to grow with every opportunity I have. I began my training at Melbourne Dance Theatre, where I completed my Senior Level 1 Vaganova Ballet Examination while also performing in their recitals and competition troupe in ballet, contemporary, lyrical, jazz, and hip hop. 

During my high school years I completed a Certificate II in Dance through the VET Dance program at St Helena Secondary College, I went on to study full-time at the Victorian College of the Arts, University of Melbourne, where I completed my Bachelor of Fine Arts in Dance. My training allowed me to develop as both a performer and creator.

Following graduation, I continued my professional development internationally by completing the SHARE Studies '26 postgraduate pre-professional training program in Berlin, Germany and interned with Gothenburg Dance Company. Since then, I have been based in Australia where I continue to pursue my love for the craft. 

I am passionate about creating a supportive, encouraging, and inclusive environment where every student feels confident to learn, explore, and express themselves through dance. I look forward to bringing this energy to all my classes at Bella Star Studios!

My dance journey began at the age of four, where I trained in ballet, jazz, hip hop, tap, and acrobatics, while also completing dance exams. I was fortunate to become part of an exclusive performance group, where 

I performed in events including the Dance Cancer Initiative and Christmas events.

During primary school, I also travelled interstate to compete in Queensland, where my team placed first.

I have experience and confidence in a wide range of styles, including hip hop, jazz, ballet, tap, lyrical, contemporary, and acrobatics. I’m excited to share my passion, knowledge, and skills with the students at Bella Star Studios!

I have been dancing for almost 20 years and have been teaching dance for the past 7 years. Throughout my dance journey, I have gained so much, including confidence, strength, and the ability to express myself through movement.

I am fortunate to combine my love of dance and teaching in my everyday role as a Primary School Teacher, and I’m excited to bring that same positive energy and passion to my classes at Bella Star Studios.

I can’t wait to share my joy and love of dance with all of our wonderful students!
