I started dancing when I was a kid, and was happy to embrace the opportunity to teach full time in 2016, when I moved from Montenegro (Europe) to California.
I graduated from the Faculty of Political Science and International law, and I still believe that I bring more joy, peace, love and connection by choosing to teach dance.
I studied, performed and taught Ballroom and Latin dances in Europe and the Bay Area, solidifying my prowess in dance forms including Salsa, Bachata, Cha Cha, Rumba, Swing, Bolero, Samba, Foxtrot, Tango, Fusion and Waltz. I worked as a Lead Studio Coordinator and Partner Flow Specialist at The Dance Loft SF for 5 years, before creating my own business.
I experience dance as a very liberating, healing, joyful and enlivening art and movement form. From winning the competitions as a 11, 12 years old, to this day, dance amazes me with its power to connect people, transform relationships, as well as build confidence and self-expression.
I’ve taught hundreds of couples and individuals, co-created and hosted over 50 workshops that merge dance with spirituality, personal growth and authentic relating in San Francisco, Sebastopol, Grass Valley, East Bay and Penninsula.
I’m perfect for you if you’re looking for a wholesome dance experience, a new way to tap into your creative side, if you are convinced you have two left feet, if you’ve been curious about the dance and big group classes intimidate you, or if you’re looking for a unique date night with your partner.
Dance allowed me to nurture flow, presence, surrender and passion in my life, and I enjoy sharing these pearls of knowledge and inspiration with kids, adults, seniors, mostly in a private or small group setting. There’s something very powerful when the work happens in a more intimate environment.
My dance coaching sometimes involve a bit of reiki, yoga, Pilates and Kundalini breathwork, as I believe these are all useful in bringing our bodies, hearts and minds into alignment, coherence and balance.
