Hello
My name is Mikola Lee
I have always had a love of dance and movement and started dance classes at the age of 3. I have danced ever since.
In 1995 I discovered my true dancing passion - Belly Dance! I began belly dance classes without really knowing much about it and I was quickly hooked and intrigued to learn and discover more about this rich and fascinating dance form.
My teaching journey began in 2007 and I have found teaching belly dance to adults to be a wonderful and rewarding experience. I am constantly amazed and very proud of my students strength and personal achievements through their dance. It is a true privilege to be able to bring belly dance into these women's lives!
​
In 2018 I added Maitland Dance for Parkinson's and Mobility Classes to my dance practice. For these classes I draw from my ballet and contemporary background as well as Middle Eastern dance and rhythms which give a unique and varied class. It is a real joy share a dance form that is accessible and has the ability to positively effect the participants lives.
​
Since I was a child, yoga has also been a part of my life and I am grateful for the benefits that my own yoga practice brings to my wellbeing and how it complements my dancing. This year, I have enjoyed adding Chair Yoga to my offerings and sharing the benefits that yoga can bring to participants who would otherwise not be able to enjoy a yoga practice. ​
