Early life and education

Ana Rich was born in Belgrade, at fifteen years of age she started first steps of Jazz dance. As she was very talented she danced in famous dance school Trik FX,[1] with whom she had many public appearances.

After one year of cooperation, five singles, she left Funky G at the end of 2012 and continued her career as a solo singer. The main reason for the termination of cooperation with Funky G was her different view of the band's future, some disagreements with the band leader Gagi Đogani, as well as Ana's wish for independent advancement.[8][9]
