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! :)

🎶 Whether you are a beginner or an experienced athlete, I will guide you step by step with a progressive and motivating method.
💻 Classes are given online, in small groups or individually, for more personalized support.
🌍 I speak French, Spanish, and Italian, so you can learn in the language you're most comfortable with.

I offer online dance classes: hip hop, dancehall, street jazz, and girly. We will work together on the basics and choreographies adapted to your level. I have already given a dance class in Brazil and several in France. With me, you will be able to let go and dance to the music you love, while discovering my world ;)

Dancing should feel fun, accessible, and personal. In these private lessons, I come to your home in Paris or teach you online to guide you step by step, no matter your level or experience. Whether you are a complete beginner, someone who simply wants to feel more confident on the dance floor, or looking for choreography for a special occasion, I design each class around your goals.

With a background in professional dance and training across multiple styles—including commercial, hip hop, contemporary, girly, and fusion—I’ll help you build strong foundations while keeping the experience enjoyable and inspiring. I have trained and danced in both Europe and Los Angeles, giving me international experience that I bring into every class. You’ll learn musicality, rhythm, body control, and performance skills, while also gaining confidence and having fun.

Alongside dance, I have trained in rhythmic gymnastics for over 10 years, which means I can also incorporate gymnastic tricks and elements into your lessons if you’d like to explore flexibility, balance, and acrobatic movement as part of your dance journey.

Each lesson is fully personalized—we’ll discuss together what you’d like to focus on, whether it’s learning a choreography, improving your basics, or exploring something new.

Classes are tailored for:

Absolute beginners who want to start dancing in a relaxed, encouraging way
Dancers who want personalized corrections and faster progress
Anyone who prefers private, at-home training instead of crowded studios
Students interested in adding gymnastic tricks or rhythmic gymnastics elements to their dance practice
Learners from anywhere who prefer the flexibility of online lessons

My mission is to make you shine through dance—whether it’s your very first step or the start of a new passion.

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!

I am going to teach a variety of styles. Starting from Bharatanatyam to other Indian folk dances, to styling and learning my own contemporary styles, I curate and design every class based on my students' abilities. All ages, all bodies are welcome. I encourage everyone who wants to enjoy quick sessions to join this, as we all want some fun just for ourselves at the end of the day.

This can be done in a freestyle or choreography format. Learn to develop yourself in cool dance styles and challenge yourself to either learn a new dance style or reach a national level!
You might know Krijn from, among others, Holland's Got Talent 2025 (Tha Boyz).

Dances for Dancers is the art of teaching dancers not merely how to move their bodies to the rhythm but how to breathe life into every step by understanding that each dance, whether it is the graceful flutter of the Cariñosa, the playful hop of the Tinikling, or the vibrant energy of modern Filipino street dance, carries within it the soul, history, struggles, joy, and identity of the Filipino people, making the dancer not just a performer but a living storyteller of culture.

Dancing and moving to fun songs with simple choreography is a great way to get in shape! I teach Zumba and Zumba + Lift. If you want to sweat, sing, move, and have fun, come to my class!
If you want the Zumba + Lift format, you only need some light dumbbells and a mat (if you have one).

I teach in Spanish and English.
You don't need to know anything, just be eager to have fun and burn lots of calories!
