Do you ever notice how a good boogie can lift your mood and get you to a happier state fast?  

​

I love to dance! It just makes me feel great.  I also love Yoga, and how it makes me feel.

​

  I have always enjoyed a good boogie on the dance floor, but those nights out became less frequent over the years.  When I was in my mid-30s, on a trip to Guatemala, I discovered the magic of salsa.  Something inside of me lit up!  Upon my return home to Geneva, I signed-up for classes. I was often found in a local latino club on a Thursday night.  Those days (and nights) were such fun, and, my waistline never looked better!

​

The following year, I went with a girlfriend to Cuba. The aim was to dance as much as possible. It was amazing. Dancing salsa, mainly outdoors on old cobbled squares, to live Cuban bands. I even returned to Cuba a few years later, to get an intense fix of the magic!  

​

Then I somehow discovered Tango. A completely different dance to salsa, and equally addictive.

​

Although many years have now passed since my first tentative dance classes, I still feel like a beginner. My dancing is now mainly confined to my kitchen! I dance on my own, and often with my daughter in my arms. Whatever my mood, it makes me feel happy.  

​

I simply put on my favourite music, and I get moving. I weave in some Yoga moves. It's completely free and intuitive. 

​

I feel different after just a few minutes of dancing. It makes me feel more clear headed, more focused.  It always lifts my mood, especially on the harder days when I'm anxious, overwhelmed, or unmotivated. Physically, I always feel so much better.  

​

What I do miss is dancing with others.  Salsa and Tango are exciting and beautiful dances with a partner. Yet nothing makes me happier than having a good boogie with my girlfriends! 

 

  The combination of Yoga and Dance seems to me so natural. It is transformative and fun. Humans are meant to move. I even believe that we are born to dance!   

​

I have wanted to share this feel-good effect with others for quite some time.

​

So I have created Yoga Dance. It is a blend of uncomplicated dance moves with complementary Yoga poses. It will improve your mood, energy, fitness, flexibility, and release stress. 

​

The first launch of Yoga Dance was in March 2019, around Women's Day. It got great feedback and I was excited to get some regular classes going. 

 

Then, soon after, much to my joy, I was pregnant. My Yoga Dance has since been confined to my kitchen.  

​

Now is the time to share it! I can't wait! Please join me and let's have some fun.

​

I think we all could do with more of that these days.

      

Love,
