This way, no dance session will be wasted! <a href=\"https:\/\/flama.fi\/en\/info\/faq\/\">Read more.<\/a> <\/p>\n<h3>What should I bring with me?<\/h3>\n<p>Wear comfortable clothing that allows you to move freely and feel good.<\/p>\n<p> The pants should be made of loose material, because it is more difficult to perform twerk techniques in very tight leggings. You can dance in indoor sneakers, dance shoes, or socks. The course also includes floorwork practice, 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 our studios.  Remember to bring a water bottle.<\/p>\n<h3>Twerk<\/h3>\n<p>Twerk, which has gained great popularity in the world, focuses on the movements of the pelvic area. Twerk has its roots in various African American and African dances, including mapouka, baikoko, niko and chakacha. As a result of slavery, dances related to the cultural traditions of African countries, cultures and tribes have been mixed. That is why the roots of twerk cannot be associated with the dances of just one region or cultural tradition. The concept of twerk was introduced in the late 80\u2019s, e.g. in the context of the bounce hip hop trend in New Orleans.<\/p>\n<p>Twerk moves can be easily taken to the dance floor and probably that is why it is commonly seen at parties. During twerk classes, you will get diversely familiar with various techniques, such as shaking, jiggle, thrusting and throwing the hip and bounce as well as some floorwork. At the beginning of the class, there is a warm-up, after which we go through some basic movements. Twerk improves physical fitness comprehensively, especially back, thigh, buttock and abdominal muscles.<\/p>\n<h3>Salla Siniranta<\/h3>\n<p>Salla has been teaching Twerk and Commercial Dance at Flama since 2020. She has more than 25 years of dancing experience. Salla has lead many performing dance groups and she has been a member in many performing dance groups as well. She now leads Flama&#8217;s Twerk and Commercial Dance Group The Honeys.<\/p>\n<p>In Salla&#8217;s classes, the most important thing is to feel good, to forget the hustle and bustle of everyday life, to enjoy the movement and maybe even exceed yourself! Learning the right and safe twerk techniques is important to Salla, and a lot of effort is put into it in Salla&#8217;s classes, especially in the classes for beginners.<\/p>\n<p>Salla aims to create a safe environment in her classes where everyone feels welcome. Without forgetting humor!
