Paloma Livellara

Paloma Livellara was born in Mendoza, Argentina. She discovered her interest in dance in Buenos Aires at the age of three after unintentionally passing by a ballet class, sparking a passion that has never faded. She initially trained in a variety of styles, deciding to focus on ballet at the age of eight when she auditioned for the Teatro Colon Ballet School. Throughout her ballet training, she had the pleasure of working with teacher Barbara Yacovone, who helped her grow until she left Argentina to study abroad. Livellara has been a Youth America Grand Prix Finalist three times, most recently in 2019, when she accepted a full scholarship from Luca Masala, director of the Académie de Danse Princesse Grace in Monaco. She left Argentina at age 14 to continue her studies across the ocean. Livellara spent five valuable years studying in Monaco, where she had the opportunity to work with many renowned teachers, artists, choreographers, and company directors. In February of 2024, she competed at the Prix de Lausanne, placing as a Finalist, Prize Winner, and winner of two additional prizes. Livellara joined ABT Studio Company in September 2024 under the artistic direction of Sascha Radetsky.
