Horus was born in São Paulo, Brazil but in his early years moved to Portugal. At the age of 18, he became a karate instructor. Only in 2007 when he met his mentor and friend Petra Pinto, he started his career as a dancer. Starting with bellydance as a form of therapy, he completely falls in love with this art and starts his journey with the help of Petra.
His learning and training always had a strong autodidact component too. In his formation/influences he as names likes Rachel Brice, Sharon Kihara, Zoe Jakes, Lulu Sabongi, Tito Seif, Kami Liddle, Samantha Emmanuel, Illan, Carolena Nericcio and many others. Horus also started to study Jazz, Hip-Hop, Contemporary Dance, Pilates and Yoga. All of this together and other life influences gives to him his particular way of performing.
Along with his mentor and Marta Machado, they became the Mozarabe Company (baptized by Viv'arte Company), which had performed in several events. They all give a spicy and different touch to their performances using snakes, fire accessories, veils, wings, and other props.
Since 2009 Horus is often invited to go to England, Spain and France to take part in various events to perform and teach.
