About me
“You’re just like a monkey kid.”
That’s what my mom told when I was a very young girl.
I liked to dance, sing, doing acrobatic and enjoy any move I made.
While all wild impulsive behavior was gone slowly when I grew up, my desire to dance, to exercise, to tell, show people the beauty of arts, things, creatures are never gone.
Raised by a single mom in Indonesia who worked hard to cover the family need, left no room for me to take luxurious thing such as dance or sport class, but the will, the dream, the effort to dance and learning was there, always was.
At the age of 15, during my bachelor study, I was asked to assist teaching a weekly course at the elementary school which I did until many years later.
Meanwhile I graduated from different studies, found job, quit job, starting a family, stayed exercise until the combination of job and having young kids took almost my time and wellbeing.
Quit exercising caused me a new desease, bronchitis.
None of the classical medical helped until I started jogging regularly and the desease dissappeared for good.
Knowing that body exercise helps to keep you stay healthy, body and mind, I couldn’t wait to tell, coach and teach fitness class After the completion of school for fitness and dance, I have teached dance fitness class since 2010.




Getting in touch with Bachata
As one of the styles I taught in my fitness class in Salsa, I took Salsa class back in 2012 The same dance school offered Bachata Dominican courses
What I love from Bachata
In general, I love African dance because the movements are so natural, full of free styles/creativity, no show off, it represents culture, social life , the emotion, the energy, of both of the music and dancers. As Bachata Dominican has its roots in African dance, it took right away to make me fall in love with this dance style.
It makes me forget the hard day I have, I can lose my creativity,emotion, connect with my dance partner, music and the space where I am
