I am a hospitality graduate based in Toronto who have passion in dance. I have been dancing since I was kindergarten to college during school activities / attending dancing school club. Been continuously training for 5 years in hiphop and jazz funk dance styles and still into sharpening my skills more through workshops and classes.

I am offering a kpop dance cover class - which means I will break down (step by step) choreographies from your favorite kpop group/ favorite kpop song based on beginner level students. I believe that having fun, focusing but not stressing about it and practicing more often (after class) is the key to continuous improvement.

message me if you are interested! :)

Bharatanatyam is an ancient Indian classical dance form. This workshop aims at making you dance a simple bharatanatyam piece with perfection in just 20 classes. The knowledge shared through this course is a highly condensed and valuable technique that has been narrowed down from the long years of rigorous training and practice into a very short duration to meet the expectation of the enthusiasts.

Bollywood dance is a brilliant fusion of hiphop with classical Indian styles, integrating belly dance recently.
It has a vibrancy that encourages movement from beginners to more experienced dancers.
I happy to customise my classes to each individual- but I like to embrace a more holistic approach - with fitness mixed with dance - to create a session that feels more rewarding.

I offer adapted dance classes for people with limited mobility and wheelchair users — online or at home. Indian dance Bollywood makes extensive use of hand gestures, eye and head movements, and torso expressions (there’s even a separate genre called gesture dance), which makes it perfectly suited for learners of all physical abilities.

In class, we also use accessories such as candles and scarves. Dance brings vibrant emotions, energy, physical activity, and connection with a confident instructor. It’s a joyful way to spend your time, moving to world-famous Bollywood hits!

The steps would be age appropriate. No experience needed. Will teach in a way which would be easy to follow and execute.

My approach to coaching is highly personalised and results-driven. Every student moves, learns, and expresses themselves differently, so I never teach from a one-size-fits-all model. Instead, each session is carefully tailored to your goals, body, experience level, and confidence needs.

I am a West End performer and professional model with extensive experience in both performance and coaching.

My professional credits include:
Original Cast of The Devil Wears Prada and Pretty Woman The Musical
Performances at the BRIT Awards
Work with artists including Stormzy, RAYE, Burna Boy, and Little Simz
Runway and modelling work for Vogue Magazine, L’Oréal, London Fashion Week, and Africa Fashion Week

This real-world industry experience allows me to coach with authenticity, insight, and current professional standards.

Great for:
- Beginners discovering their foundations
- Intermediate/Advanced preparing for castings or auditions.
- Refining performance quality
- Performers seeking greater stage presence and confidence
- Anyone wanting private, focused guidance
- Those who prefer a safe, supportive, 1:1 space
- All ages, All genders, all identities, all bodies welcome
