Bio: Embarking on a journey into the realm of dance five years ago, I am fortunate to be experienced in many kinds of dance including ballroom, salsa, and Afro-Cuban dance. The profound impact of body movement as both a hobby and a healing tool immediately captivated me. Recognizing its transformative power, I delved deeper into this passion, immersing myself in Afro-Cuban dance and salsa. My mission is to impart the fundamental body movements inspired by African and Latin dancing, empowering individuals to embrace their bodies and find comfort in movement. In my eyes, body movement is a universal healer, and I'm dedicated to guiding and opening up hearts and bodies through the joy of dance.
