Derin trained at the Dutch National Ballet Academy in Amsterdam, where she completed the full classical programme and graduated with a Bachelor of Arts (BA) in Dance, building both her technical and pedagogical foundation.

I believe all forms of dance have the power to connect people and improve oneself not just physically but also spiritually in this current world where creativity, connection and joy of dancing is needed more than ever.
My teaching philosophy centers on creating a safe, engaging and productive learning environment with a strong emphasis on both the technical and artistic aspects of ballet.
