MEET OUR DUAL STUDENTS: MAJA & MONA

Mona's responsibilities include social media, international communication with event organisers and administrative tasks. She enjoys being part of a team of talented and creative people and contributing to a wide range of dance-related projects. She has already learned a lot about the preparation and organisation behind individual events and is particularly looking forward to the upcoming FINALS and gala next year, as well as the expansion of the competitions and further projects such as GO-MASTERS.

Meet Maja

Originally from Hagen, Germany, Maja is studying Tourism Management with a focus on Event Management at IU International University of Applied Sciences. She is currently in her first year and joined Dance Unit because she wanted to combine her studies with practical experience from the very beginning.

Maja mainly supports the planning and organisation of events, as well as team coordination. She particularly enjoys the early stages of event planning, where she can bring structure to ideas and organise everything behind the scenes. What she appreciates most about working at Dance Unit is the great team atmosphere and the variety of tasks – no two days are the same!

Having danced ballet and hip-hop in the past, Maja already has a connection to the dance world, even though she is no longer actively dancing. She is especially excited about experiencing her first tour and attending the gala. During her time at Dance Unit, she hopes to learn as much as possible about event management and gain a deeper understanding of everything that goes into creating successful events.

Meet Mona

Mona’s connection to Dance Unit goes back many years. Having spent over a decade competing in dance competitions, she also took part in Dance Unit Qualifiers and FINALS herself. When she saw that Dance Unit was expanding, she recognised an opportunity to combine her studies with her passion for the dance industry. Together with Tomekk, she decided to pursue a dual study programme with Dance Unit.

Dance has been a major part of Mona's life since she was five years old. Alongside more than a decade of competitive dancing, she has also gained experience in professional dance settings. During her time at Dance Unit, she hopes to explore as many different areas of the organisation as possible and continue developing her skills.

Mona's responsibilities include social media, international communication with event organisers and administrative tasks. She enjoys being part of a team of talented and creative people and contributing to a wide range of dance-related projects.
