Helena was born in Barcelona, Spain. She initiated dance with Spanish dance, traditional dances, and ballet. After graduating from Institut del Teatre in Barcelona, she furthered her studies at Codarts University of the Arts in Rotterdam, The Netherlands. After discovering the Israeli dance scene and joining Vertigo Dance Company, Helena started freelancing back in Europe. She works now mostly with Sidi Larbi Cherkaoui at Eastman, Kor'sia and Benjamin Millepied for Grace, among others.

Her solo works, including Anatomy of a Craft, Dream Hostage, Thick Skin and Grifo, have been presented at Deltebre Festival, Spain, Turkey’s Solo CerModern Festival and Les Nuits de la Danse in Nice by Aurélie Dupont, among others.

Alongside creations, performing and touring, Helena develops audiovisual projects both in front and behind the camera (such as short movies Monsters & Madonna by Maud Rallière, InBetween by Lambert Grand and Kériane Nouguier, Selfie by Hugo Carlier, fashion projects of renowned brands and magazines, and movement direction for music videos as AFTERIMAGE by Justice and Bouquet Final by Vanessa Paradis).

Helena is now making her first full evening piece Fareras, which had a creation residency in Orsolina28, with the support and co-production of EDF Foundation’s in Paris. It will be performed in Festival Danse la Lumière in the winter of 2026.
