What if I can’t participate every week?<\/h3>\n

Absences from classes can be made up during the same term in any other class or drop-in session. This way, no dance session will be wasted! Read more.<\/a> <\/p>\n

What should I bring with me?<\/h3>\n

Wear comfortable clothing that allows you to move freely and feel good.<\/p>\n

The pants should be made of loose material, because it is more difficult to perform twerk techniques in very tight leggings. For heels classes, we recommend high heels with ankle support. The best option for heels technique is a thin stiletto heel, but you can also dance in thicker heels. The sole of the shoe should be thin but firm, so a platform sole is not the best choice. However, do not stress about the shoes! However, please make sure that the soles of your dance shoes are clean and the heel tips are intact to avoid damaging the studio floor. The course also includes floor work, so it\u2019s a good idea to bring knee pads or leg warmers to protect your knees. Knee pads are also available for purchase in our online store and at the studios. Remember to bring a water bottle. <\/p>\n

Twerk with Heels<\/h3>\n

In the class, we fuse the basic techniques of both twerk and heels, learning to twerk naturally and confidently in heels. We practice combining heels and twerk techniques, exploring how twerk movements feel in our bodies with the shift in weight and posture that heels bring, and what new elements heels can add to already learned twerk basics. The course includes choreographies that combine twerk with smooth, feminine movement. <\/p>\n

Meri Niemi<\/h3>\n

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 \u2013 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 \u2013 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\u2019s classes is that movement or choreography doesn\u2019t matter \u2013 it\u2019s the attitude that counts. Everyone is welcome to Meri\u2019s classes as themselves, and whatever the discipline, the main focus is on finding and nurturing your own unique movement language. <\/p>\n

\u201cCome to class exactly as you are today, and move in the way that feels right for you today!\u201d<\/p>\n

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\u2019s office. <\/p>\n
