this is me
Dancing has always been a cherished hobby for me, something I’ve enjoyed and deeply connected with.
I first learned to dance through my mum, who took me out to social dancing ever since I was little. This early experience wove dancing into the very fabric of who I am. Love you Mami <3
Over the years, my relationship with dance became more professional. Now, I've had the chance to create something wonderful: Makuti. This venue allows me to share my love for dancing in a new way with the community.
