Open to all non-professional dancers aged 15 to 18 of all nationalities, the Prix de Lausanne is a high-profile\u00a0 dance competition that takes place annually. 17 year old Marco Masciari is a dancer of the Acad\u00e9mie Princesse Grace, which has now seen three consecutive years of gold medals awarded to one of its pupils (Shale Wagman in 2018 and Mackenzie Brown in 2019).<\/p>\n

Marco started dancing at the age of 9 in Calabria, his native region in Italy. At 13, he won first prize in a dance competition in Rome. Inspired by dancers Rudolf Nureyev and Mikhail Barychnikov, Marco completed an internship at the Acad\u00e9mie Princesse Grace before being accepted to the famous Monaco dance academy slightly ahead of the minimum age requirement of 14 years old.<\/p>\n
