about
I began my professional dancing career in France right after my formal education in Finland. I have been performing and teaching around the world among with top boogie woogie dancers.
I started to dance rock´n swing in 2007 and danced in various Boogie Woogie competitions. I’ve got ranked 1st in Finnish championship 2009, 1st in Canadian swing championship 2010 (Classic Swing Couple & Just do it divisions), 2nd in World Cup 2010, 5th in European Championship and 4th in World Championship 2010 during my career as a professional dancer.
I’ve studied in Oulu University of Applied Sciences and got my degree as a Dance Teacher in February 2010. My studies included: Folk Dance, Hip Hop, Jazz, Argentinian Tango, Latin Dance, Ballet, Salsa, Rock’n'swing and Finnish Ballroom Dance as major. In spring 2007, I studied Rock’n'swing, Jazz and Hip Hop in the Hungarian Dance Academy for 4 months.
Before starting my formal education, I danced for 6 years in Citydance, a private dance school, where I danced Hip Hop, Disco, as well as Jazz, Salsa, Bollywood and Ballet. Before Citydance, I danced Folk Dances for 2 years and Children’s Dance for a year.
