Giuseppe Iodice
Vita
Born in Naples, Giuseppe discovered a passion for dance at the age of three, a love that has accompanied them ever since. At 14, they began their professional training at Eugenio Buratti’s dance school, Dancer at Work, in Florence. Just two years later, they transferred to the State Ballet School in Berlin, enrolling in the bachelor’s programme in Stage Dance in cooperation with the Ernst Busch University of Theatre Arts. This dual training in dance and drama proved to be a powerful foundation for their artistic growth. In 2023, Giuseppe was selected as one of only 16 dancers worldwide to participate in a three-month residency at La Biennale di Venezia – College Danza, under the direction of Wayne McGregor. Over the course of their developing career, they have performed in works by, amongst others, William Forsythe, Jeroen Verbruggen, Xie Xin, and Jiří Kylián. During the 2024/25 season, Giuseppe joined the National Moravian-Silesian Theatre in Ostrava, where they were awarded the Ceny Jantar for their performance in Marco Goecke’s Firebird duet. In the 2025/26 season, they became a member of Gauthier Dance JUNIORS.
