● All levels ● All ages ● Flexibility to suit your musical tastes.

💃 Hello everyone!! Get ready to add some spice to your moves and dive into the electrifying world of Latin music! My name is Evelyn, a dance enthusiast from Peru, currently residing in Geneva while pursuing my master's degree.

🎶 I invite you to join my exciting dance classes, where I will guide you through the infectious rhythms of salsa, bachata, and zumba, infusing each lesson with the unique flavors of Latin American culture.

🎯 My main goal is your comfort, because to me, dance is a way to express yourself and live life fully. I want my students to enjoy every step without any pressure and to experience the joy of moving to Latin rhythms. My classes are open to all ages. I look forward to awakening the dancer within you and connecting you with the rhythms that make our hips sway and our hearts sing!

☘️ When I start working with students, they often repeat the same patterns—mechanical, rigid steps memorized from 1 to 7. Dancing becomes a mere imitation rather than a natural expression.

I’m here to help you transform what you’ve learned in group classes and take your dancing to the next level.

In my classes, I teach you to feel salsa and bachata. If you feel them, you’ll be able to dance anywhere, with anyone, with confidence and flow. We’ll work from the foundation:
✔️ You’ll learn to identify and follow the rhythm.
✔️ You’ll understand transitions and how to adapt to them.
✔️ You’ll develop your skills in partner dancing.

From the very first class, we’ll correct what’s necessary so that you don’t just improve—you build a solid foundation that allows you to express yourself naturally. Are you ready to feel the dance? 💃🔥

🌟 P.S.: Besides teaching Latin dances, I have experience in creating custom choreographies for weddings and special events. If you have a choreography in mind, feel free to share it, and we’ll learn it together!

FAQ

● Do I need dance shoes? No, that is not necessary. I recommend coming with comfortable shoes.
● What should I wear? I suggest you come in light clothes in which you feel comfortable.
● Alone or accompanied? You can come either alone or with a partner. I also offer couples classes.
● Other questions? Feel free to contact me!
