Di Giulio
DANCER / CHOREOGRAPHER
Martina Di Giulio is an Italian dancer and choreographer originally from Brindisi, currently based in Germany.
She received her professional training at D.A.F. Dance Arts Faculty in Rome. During her studies, she was already engaged by Compagnia CDG Danza under the direction of Mirko Giorgino and
later joined the Spellbound Junior Ensemble led by Mauro Astolfi.
In 2018, she moved to Germany for her first professional engagement with the ballet of Landestheater Coburg where she also began gaining her first experiences as a choreographer with “come sei veramente” for the evening of Jung Choreographers. From 2019 to 2023, she was a member of the ballet company of Staatstheater Augsburg, also here, she creates a new solo “(re)search-(e)motions” for the Jung Choreographers night at Landestheater Coburg. Since the 2023/24 season, she has been dancing with BallettCompagnie Oldenburg.
Throughout her career, she has performed in works by internationally renowned choreographers including Alexander Ekman, Johan Inger, Mauro Bigonzetti, Jacopo Godani, Peter Chu, Martin Chaix, Patrick Delcroix, Lukas Timulak, Iratxe Ansa, Alex Kros, Barak Marshall, Alice Topp, Lilit Hakobyan and Antoine Jully.
Martina’s artistic work is driven by a deep interest in human connection, identity, and emotional landscapes, using the body as a tool for expression, research, and storytelling. On stage, her body becomes a place of research: a space where vulnerability is not hidden, but transformed into presence.
Alongside performing, Martina creates choreographic works that weave together movement, voice, and atmosphere. Her process is instinctive and deeply personal, often starting from writing, recorded texts, or emotional images that slowly take physical form. In May 2025, she created “a tale of us – a letter for me” for the first Young Choreographers Competition during the 16th International TanzTage at the Staatstheater Oldenburg.
Her artistic path is guided by a continuous search for honesty. It begins with sensations, fragments of poetry, personal stories, and the invisible tensions that exist between people. Rather
than presenting answers, her work opens spaces — fragile, human, and alive — where the audience is invited to recognize something of themselves.
