Mirka has a long history of different dance styles. She started dancing at the age of seven with ballroom dancing and continued until her teenage years. Mirka found dancing again in 2010, and she fell in love with Latin dances, especially Cuban dances. After that, she has danced many different dance styles.
However, Show Burlesque took her heart and gave a whole new meaning for dancing. As a teacher, Mirka is compelling and purposeful but still easy-going. There is always a cheerful atmosphere in the classes. It is important to Mirka that the joy of dancing is present in her teaching, as well as the enjoyment of the music, own movements and the crossing of boundaries.
Mirka has taught different kinds of Latin dances and Show Burlesque at Flama from 2018. Mirka also directs three of Flama’s performing dance groups: the Flama Crew, the Flaming Firecrackers and La Calentura.
