For class, it’s best to wear clothes that are comfortable to move in and feel good. You can dance in indoor sneakers, dance shoes, or just in your socks. Some classes include floor work, and for those sessions, we recommend bringing knee pads or shin guards to protect your knees. Knee pads are also available for purchase in our online store and at our studios. Be sure to bring a water bottle, too.
Reggaeton is a dance and music style that emerged in the early 1990s and is now popular worldwide; it has been influenced by, among other things, various South and Central American dance styles, such as dancehall, various Afro-dance styles, and hip hop. Reggaeton has its roots in Panama, Puerto Rico, and Cuba, among other places.
Reggaeton is characterized by strong dynamic fluctuations, polyrhythmics and playing with chest and hip isolation in particular. The style is characterized by strong dynamic contrasts: powerful, fast accents alternate with soft, sensual movements in reggaeton. Reggaeton classes are full of power, energy and attitude!
Mirka has a long history with various dance styles. She started dancing at age 7 with competitive dance and continued with it into her teens. She rediscovered dancing in 2010 and fell in love with Latin dances, especially Cuban dances. Since then, Mirka has danced many different styles.
As a teacher, Mirka is compelling and purposeful but still easy-going. There is always a cheerful and enthusiastic atmosphere in Mirka’s classes. For Mirka, the most important thing in teaching is the joy of dance, enjoying the music and her own movement, and pushing her own boundaries.
Mirka has been instructing various dance classes at Flama since 2018, and she currently leads three of Flama’s performing dance groups: Flama Crew, Flaming Firecrackers, and La Calentura.
