Meri is a dance teacher from Turku, whose classes are filled with laughter and humour while practising at full speed. Meri believes that training and having fun are not mutually exclusive – on the contrary, the more fun we have in our dance classes, the more likely we are to want to return to our hobby again and again. What interests and inspires Meri most about dancing is using different energies and getting deeper into the qualities of movement. As an instructor, she is a relaxed person, but encourages dancers to always do their best in the moment – listening to their own bodies. Meri often receives praise from her students for her encouraging, positive energy and her clear and calm teaching style, making it easy for even beginners to keep up with the class. A motto often heard in Meri’s classes is that movement or choreography doesn’t matter – it’s the attitude that counts. Everyone is welcome to Meri’s classes as themselves, and whatever the discipline, the main focus is on finding and nurturing your own unique movement language.
“Come to class exactly as you are today, and move in the way that feels right for you today!”
Meri teaches twerk and reggaeton at Flama, and occasionally also commercial dance classes. You may also spot her at the front desk or replying to your emails, as in addition to teaching, Meri works in the studio’s office.
