I think that everything that life offers should be accepted

Iris is a true chameleon of the dance world, whose passion and versatility create a powerful combination. Iris has dedicated all her free time to dance since kindergarten, trying her hand at various styles and sports—from judo to show dance. Today, she mainly focuses on street dance, highlighting the uniqueness of hip hop and house. Additionally, she has a deep knowledge of different street dance styles and their history, such as litefeet, locking, popping, waacking, and many others.

As a coach, Iris is committed to inspiring and encouraging her students to discover their full potential. She teaches not only dance techniques but also discipline, creativity, and the importance of dreaming big. Her goal is to convey the freedom and passion of street dance that ignites the heart of every dancer.

From 2019 to 2022, Iris led street dance classes in Southern Estonia until she went abroad in 2022 to further her knowledge and skills at Flow Dance Academy in Paris, France, where she studied under renowned dancers and street dance pioneers.

Since the fall of 2023, Iris has been training hip-hop and house dancers of various ages and skill levels at Free Flow Studio.

In addition to dance, Iris is involved in event marketing and content creation daily, and she has performed as an actress in Estonia's largest theaters. With her experience and energy, Iris has collaborated with well-known Estonian artists and shined on various international stages.

Iris's hip-hop classes are designed for anyone who wants to learn the basics of the dance style or improve their skills, regardless of their level. In addition to dance, elements of street culture are introduced. The classes help develop body awareness, physical fitness, and allow you to discover your unique style.

The training focuses on learning choreography and combinations through independent tasks as well as group work. Students dance to various music styles and rhythms to provide a diverse experience. Each dancer receives a strong foundation upon which they can continue to build and grow according to their desires.

All dance enthusiasts of any age are welcome, whether you're a beginner or an experienced dancer. The friendly and supportive atmosphere allows for the free expression of creativity. If you enjoy hip-hop music and want to express yourself through movement, this class is for you!

House is an energetic dance style that originated in the 1980s in Chicago and New York, blending influences from Afro, jazz, disco, and Latin styles. In the classes, you'll learn the basic elements, techniques, and movement combinations of house, including footwork, jacking, and lofting.

The sessions include warm-ups, technique drills, choreography, and improvisation, providing dancers with an in-depth introduction to the world of house. This style is suitable for all levels, enhancing creativity, body mobility, and confidence on the dance floor.

We learn to dance to various music styles and rhythms, discuss dance philosophy, and build a foundation for each dancer to continue developing as they wish.

"Let your steps tell your story" – house dance gives you the freedom for self-expression and the creation of your personal narrative.
