About
As an accomplished choreographer, educator, and former professional competitive Latin dancer, I bring over 20 years of expertise in choreography and dance teaching. With a bachelor’s degree in Choreography and extensive experience in International Latin, Classical, Contemporary, and Commercial dance, I’ve guided countless students to excel in national and international competitions, shaping the next generation of dancers, choreographers, educators, and even athletes.
I had the privilege of being mentored by legends, receiving advanced training from renowned Latin dance teachers Espen Salberg and Ralf Laphene, whose expertise deeply influenced my artistry and teaching methods. My passion extends beyond technical training—I strive to create a supportive, inspiring environment where creativity flourishes, confidence grows, and the art of movement becomes a powerful means of expression.
