Natural Ability Without Education Has More Often Attained To Glory And Virtue Than Education Without

About Me

A half-Finnish half Egyptian born and raised Finn with Egyptian enchantiveness (ha!) and Finnish endurance of the freeze-your-ass-off climate. Opposites attracted each other two decades ago, and I was born. Been a dancer since I was two years old. It's my life. My passion. I love, live and breath it. My mom put me to ballet when I was two and there it all started. Been dancing in different groups and different clubs around the world. Ballet, HipHop, Street, Dancehall, Krump, Jive, Swing, House, Funky , Latin; Salsa,Son/Timba, Merengue, Cha-Cha-Cha, Contemporary, Tap..You name it! Currently working as a freelance dancer and Pilates and Yoga instructor. Used to work at Privilege as a dancer... Loved it! But hey people, keep in mind, movement is universal so stop categorizing! Don't be narrow minded and always, always have respect for different genres. And remember, above all, to stay true to yourself. And then.. Go dumb wit it. Shake them dreads while doing piruets :) Take a lil sumthin sumthin from the pioneers of tap, Leonard Reed and Willy Bryant; do the shim sham shimmy and to the end add a running man. Yep, you heard me, a running man! Tac Annie, run it through two times. Grand blies. Dig into jacking at the party so hard the next day your neck, back and whole body hurts:D Tendus and stomps. Tutting. Liquiding. Wacking. Cookie Cook. Dutty Wine. Do the hustle. Voguing. Do the farmer double time. Take a break; stamp, toe-step, hop-step, hop-step, stamp-stamp. Do the Wu-Tang slide! Paddle'n'roll. And let them haters drink that hatorade. Let them waste their energy on that bs. Harlem shake those haters off. Couple of buck-ups and they be gone. And ladies, shake what ya dear mama gave ya, shake that healthy butt! And don't cram that shit up into size 4 if you size 8. Be damn proud of it!! Am I making any sense? Let me brake it down to you one more time; movement is universal so stop categorizing. Stop categorizing. Let's all just ride the yellow bus!


My Interests

Family.(R.I.P. dad) Friends.(My soulmate Kimmo, where would I be without you? Love you for the bottom of my heart!) Dancing.(The love of my life). Music (Can't live without them beats). Laughter. Sex. Travelling (gotta get outta here every now and then). Athens (the Acropolis..what can I say..). Amsterdam. Brazil (Canoa Quebrada, heaven on earth). Barcelona (considering moving there soon). Crete.(A lot of good memories, especially from Privilege.) Scuba Diving (used to be an instructor). Culture. Fashion (don't follow it, never dress by it, have a complete style of my own). Street Art. Graffiti. Arabic Calligraphy. Chilling. Clubbing. Smoking. Sun bathing. Swimming and all water sports, especially jet skiing. Love it! Pitbulls. Kitty cats. Long conversations with the ones you love. My moms presence, her wisdom and the fact that she defines the term unconditional love. The way sand feels between your toes after spending a long winter in Finland. Diving into crystal clear water. Travelling abroad and having that first breath of warm air as you step out from the plane. Walks in the sunset. Partying till the sun rises.

I'd like to meet:

My deceased dad once again..if I only could. So many words left unspoken, so many feelings left unshown. The weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong. R.I.P papamou
