Blanka Flora Csasznyi studied at The Place – London Contemporary Dance School and the Budapest Contemporary Dance Academy where she earned her master degree in dance pedagogy in 2020. She has been working with Joe Alegado since 2010. During these years she has been assisting Shifting Roots-AML creations and classes in several countries around the world. Among others, these included the ImPulsTanz festival in Vienna, Jugnee Dance Festival in Mumbai, DAR Jazz festival in St. Petersburg. The synergy of the collaboration between Joe and Blanka produced the present structural character of classes which inspired the need to distinguish Joe Alegado`s work from others. The result of this separation led to its present shape and nature as an independent movement methodology: Shifting Roots – the Alegado Movement Language. Blanka gives workshops at several schools and institutions (Budapest Contemporary Dance Academy, Workshop Foundation Budapest, Várkert Bazár). For her dance pedagogical activities she won the Viktor Fülöp Scholarship in 2021. Beyond that, Blanka also works as a freelancer dancer and prepares performers for theater and movie productions.
