My Dance:

I have dedicated 20 years to competition dance, specializing in Ballroom and Latin American styles. Notably, I represented Finland in the national team from 1998 to 2000 and even participated as a coach on the Finnish edition of Dancing with the Stars in 2008. My main focus is in correct footwork, body movements and expressing your dance to authentic music while embracing the true character of the dance.

I have drawn lessons from the following teachers:

Jukka Haapalainen, Sirpa Suutari-Jääskö, Michael Stylianos, Lorraine Rohdin, Göran Nordin, Stephen Hillier, Fabio Selmi, Simona Fancello, Juha “Leevi” Leskinen, Harri Antikainen, Niina Antikainen, Markku Siltala, Virpi Kainulainen and Jussi Väänänen.

These educators, along with many others, have significantly influenced my journey and professional growth. Their guidance, knowledge, and mentorship have shaped my perspectives and equipped me with the necessary tools to excel in my dance field.
