I have been dancing since I was very young. Due to the prolonged illness of my theater teacher, I was given dance lessons as a replacement. From that moment, I was hooked and never let go. Through dance, I feel free, happy, and connected — connected to the music and to others who love to dance.
After high school, I was accepted into Codarts, the University of the Arts, where I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Dance Education in 2013. During my final year, I crossed paths with Selwin, and together we founded Mistura Movement. After graduating from the dance academy, I was able to fully focus on building the dance school, which I have done from the very beginning with heart and passion.
At Mistura Movement, it’s so much more than just taking a dance class. I have always wanted to create a place where everyone feels welcome, seen, and heard. A place where everyone belongs and feels safe to open up. A place where you grow not only in dance but also mentally and socially.
I am present and a little bit quirky, so classes are always fun. I will always try to bring out the best in you and make you feel comfortable. Obstacles are there to be overcome safely, not to hold you back!
Suleika in five words: energetic, driven, passionate, loving, and helpful
