VIKTORY isn’t just a fierce performer—they’re also a visionary thinker who holds a MA Degree in Dance - Teaching and coaching dance professionals by the Zurich University of Arts. In their MA thesis, "The Intersection of Drag Culture and Dance Pedagogy", VIKTORY explored how the vibrant world of drag can empower dance professionals in new and innovative ways.
By blending the creativity, freedom, and performative aspects of drag culture with the discipline and technique of dance education, VIKTORY developed a fresh, inclusive approach to teaching. Their work invites dancers to embrace their full selves—both on and off stage—while challenging the traditional boundaries of gender, identity, and expression in dance.
Through this research, VIKTORY aims to make the dance studio a space for exploration, self-expression, and empowerment, showing how drag’s transformative power can reshape how we learn and teach dance in today's world.
