“Amalia is a wonderful instructor, artfully guiding both newbies and experienced dancers to tap into their grace and sensuality as they grow at their own pace. Her classes are immersive, with a feeling of a shared dance journey free of judgment. Amalia’s lovely heart shines out in her teaching and beautiful dancing.

“Amalia is the most compassionate and fun dance teacher that I've had in a long time. I've been taking lessons with her for several months and I'm thoroughly enjoying it! After the first class when she said to let your belly out, I felt much more love and acceptance for my body and I knew this was the place for me!”

“I have to pause now and then to consider how many amazing, beautiful things are here for us in Philly. Take, for example, the dancer Amalia who brings her unique vibrant energy and charm to her performances. And she's here in this city!!! See her at Zesty's on some Saturday nights. And take classes with her!”

“Amalia is an awesome dancer and a lot of fun to learn from. I enjoy her lively energy and the way she teaches students on any level of experience. She explains the basics but still always makes it challenging for older students..”

Amalia was so positive when teaching! She encouraged all of us to step out of our comfort zone, which was exactly why I was there!
