She is the first and only foreign artist in the prestigious Kirov Ballet in Russia. Also known as "ballerina of the people", Lisa is presently the Artistic Director and principal dancer of BALLET MANILA - the country's youngest and most sought classical dance company.
About TEDx, x = independently organized event In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
