About Mimi: She is not just a teacher—she’s a mentor who brings her passion and creativity to every class. Known for her ability to connect deeply with her students, she fosters an inclusive environment where everyone feels empowered to shine. Her choreography blends elegance with boldness, ensuring you leave the workshop feeling inspired and ready to strut confidently both on and off the dance floor.

Workshop Level: This workshop is for all level students. No prior experience required; it is designed for anyone eager to explore the artistry and empowerment of dancing in high heels.

*If it is your first time in heels it is suggested to wear a shorter & thicker based heel to start and work your way to a skinner heel. 

What kind of heels should I wear? We suggest heels with strong ankle support.

What should I wear? You want an outfit that is comfortable, flattering, and easy to move in; pants, cute little shorts, or leggings are great. If your knees are exposed, consider wearing knee pads so that you can slide around on the floor comfortably. Just make sure that your outfit allows you to move freely and doesn’t restrict your movement in any way.
