Minna, whose stage name is Dance Euphoria, is a versatile dance teacher based in Turku. Starting out with the open-mindedness of a contemporary dancer, her dance journey has taken her from the world of West African dance to the Caribbean, to places where dance lives on the streets and in people’s homes, offering self-expression, freedom, and resistance. Dance is not just steps, it is above all culture and shared joy!
As a teacher, Minna strives to inspire and encourage her students, believing that everyone has the opportunity to exceed their limits and learn something new through dance. Regardless of the dance style, Minna wants to dance with a big heart and convey the joy of dance to the others as well.
During Flama’s weekly classes, Minna teaches solo bachata, Cuban solo salsa, Jamaican Female Dancehall, and West African street dances. The Caribbean Mix class offers a constantly changing selection of different styles from the Caribbean – from rumba and son to soca and reparto!
