Born in 1975 in Chile, Estefania Miranda was awarded a scholarship at the age of 15 and studied dance in Scotland and the Netherlands, obtaining her bachelor diploma in dance at the University of the Arts Tilburg / NL. In her third year of study, she became a soloist of the Ismael Ivo Company at the National Theatre Weimar in Germany. Ismael Ivo, the 'enfant terrible' of international dance, founder of the Impuls Dance Festival Vienna and director of the Venice Dance Biennial, created outstanding roles for her, including Medea in Medeamaterial after Heiner Müller. The productions Der nackte Michelangelo, directed by the legendary George Tabori at the Schaubühne in Berlin, and Auswanderungen, based on a concept of Ivo and Heiner Müller about Antonin Artaud, attracted particular attention. International tours followed. During this period, Estefania Miranda also developed her first choreographies for the National Theatre Weimar. In 2000, the theatre director Susanne Lietzow discovered her as an actress and integrated her into the ensemble of actors of the National Theatre Weimar. A long-term collaboration between the two artists developed, in which Miranda performed several main roles, including Marie in Woyzeck. From 2003, she worked in several projects as a dancer and actress, including at the Schauspiel Hannover, the Theatre Linz, with Marina Abramovic in Paris and Hans van den Broeck, co-founder of Les Ballets C de la B, in Vienna.

She founded the Company Estefania Miranda in 2009 and purchased her own dance production centre with a café in Berlin. Alongside her work as a choreographer, she became in 2010 the director of the dance department of the National Theatre Weimar and curator of the International Dance Festival Weimar. Estefania Miranda was assigned director and principal choreographer of Bern Ballet in 2013. Under her directorship the company grew its national and international recognition enormously. With sold-out performances and an average occupation rate of 99% for all shows during several seasons, Bern Ballet quickly became the most successful department of the theatre and best-selling dance company in Switzerland. Especially Mirandas choreographies Das Schloss after Kafka, Callas, Vier Jahreszeiten and La Divina Comedia were celebrated by the audience and honoured by the press. The ensemble was awarded the Prix Suisse De La Danse for choreographic creation in 2015 and the Prix Pro Senectute in 2019, the same year in which the company toured in China. Miranda also founded and directed the festival Tanzplattform Bern, and managed to have a new rehearsal building with all amenities constructed for the company. She built a complete medical care system for the dancers, as well as the first fonds in Switzerland for retraining of dancers when they retire. Estefania Miranda resigned from her position as director of Bern Ballet end of 2021, but continued to work for Bern Ballet as curating consultant till 2025. Having now more time for international collaborations, she has been working in diverse productions, among others on the recreation of La Divina Comedia for Ballet Graz, the Symphonic Orchestra Graz and the Choir Graz in 2026. Her ability to create dance pieces that are based on classical references and transform a known subject into a multi-layered piece of art, that is relevant to our times, is remarkable. Not only therefore Miranda is often described by the press, as the guarantee for success. It is also her multidisciplinary approach and immersive concepts, that dissolve the boundaries between stage and audience, which distinguishes her work as unique and her skills as a manager, that makes her work successful.
