Background
Marina started teaching in 1999, alongside her training at the Balettakademien. Since then she has taught at numerous dance schools in Stockholm, including Marikas Dansstudio, Danscenter, City Balettskolan, and Kulturskolan.
She has worked as a dancer and musical performer in major productions and is a certified group fitness instructor. In recent years she has further trained as a behavioral scientist with a bachelor’s degree in psychology and a step-1 qualification in psychotherapy.
Marina teaches with structure, safety, and joy. She learns everyone’s name, builds group spirit, and wants every child to leave happy and eager to return. She is also open to mentoring younger dance teachers in their pedagogical growth.
