“ I highly recommend Kuriko as a Bachata instructor. I have known Kuriko for over 4 years. In that time, I have witnessed Kuriko really invested in soaking up knowledge of Bachata, Merengue and Cuban Salsa. I have taken class with Kuriko and she is an amazing teacher that truly wants her students to learn and improve. She understands that dance and culture are closely intertwined and focuses on giving her students an authentic experience in every class. Her positive energy and close attention to detail is a rare gem. For all of these reasons, I highly recommend Kuriko as a Bachata Instructor. “

“ I have taken online group and private lessons from Kuriko and I cannot recommend her enough. Let me tell you why Kuriko is one of my favourite dance teachers. I love the how she breaks down the movements and the musicality in a way that I can understand. Footwork has always been a challenge for me but she gave me movements that add flavour to my dance without it being too complicated for me to incorporate on the dance floor. When I took privates from her she gave me great feedback on my body movement that helped me have a better flow. Not only is she a great instructor she is very knowledgeable and passionate about Dominican culture. P.S. have you seen her dancing in some of her videos. The musicality though! “

“Dear Kuriko, as I began to understand my body a lot better, I learnt two things.

1. Yoga is easy. It comes naturally to me. Progression is a given.

2. Dancing is none of the above. But you can make it possible! You see my potential (when I can’t quite yet). Today I feel proud of my achievements and I want to keep trying. You teach me with a yogic approach of body, mind & soul. Your anatomic perception is intuitively on point. Your methods keep evolving while your classes are always a happy place. Thank you for being the perfect teacher to me 💜”

“Ich bin unglaublich dankbar, Kuriko kennengelernt zu haben! Meine Liebe zu Bachata und Merengue hat sich durch den Unterricht bei ihr noch weiter ausgeprägt. Die Authentizität und die Verbindung zwischen Tanz und Kultur ist das, was ich so sehr an ihr schätze ! Sie ist meiner Meinung nach eine der sehr wenigen Personen (zumindest in unserer Umgebung), die einen grossen Wert auf den Ursprung des Tanzes legt. Ausserdem steckt sie mit ihrer Freude und Leidenschaft alle Schüler:innen an, sodass der Popo im Unterricht nicht stillhalten kann! :) Unbedingt selbst ausprobieren !“

“Kuriko is an amazing dance instructor! She sees everything and really supports your growth as a dancer. She wants to be there and help you gain the dancing capabilities she already sees you have that you might not even be aware of. She makes sure that every student gets their one-on-one time even in a group class so that you can get the best out of it! Kuriko is a super fun and caring instructor, her moves are incredible and besides that you feel the love she has for dancing in her classes, she truly knows what she is talking about! I can nothing but recommend her classes. “
