Parwin Claudia Hadinia was born in Switzerland into a Swiss Iranian family. She studied modern dance in New York and London and was engaged at an early age at the Ankara state conservatory and the Ankara state opera. Teaching and choreographing a western dance technique in a eastern culture and carrying her eastern root back to the west has formed her as an artist and as a human being. Later engaged as a dancer in Switzerland, she also developed her own company and school as well as a children's dance and theater center. Now she is performing in many countries with dancers, musicians, painters and actors who all search for their personal artistic approach in a joint world. She is involved in education, cultural and peace project world wide.

Since then, she has performed with Ian Anderson/Jethro Tull, Gloria Estefan, Joe Lovano, Oscar Stagnaro, Pablo Ablanedo Septet, Mark Feldman, The Boston String Quartet, Vardan Ovsepian Chamber Ensemble, and others. Currently she is teaching in the Bay Area, and performing with Resonance Jazz Ensemble, Tangonero, George Cole, and others.
