About

Dance is my jam, honestly. It's not just steps and music for me - it's how I shake off a bad day, reset my mood, and find my people. I started teaching because I wanted a space where we can move, mess up, laugh, and learn together. Sometimes the dance isn't perfect, but the fun is real.

What You'll Learn

I teach a mix of Latin styles. Salsa is usually the big entry point - we do both On1 and On2, so you get what you need for real social dancing. There's partner work, solo shines, ladies styling, and musicality. Warning: the clave rhythm will haunt you!

Bachata is next up. We go from Tradicional to Sensual and Fusion, with lots of partner combos and focus on building your confidence for the floor. If you're curious, I also run workshops on the roots - Pachanga footwork basics, Son, and Mambo. You’ll get the backstory and flavour that makes your dancing pop.

How My Classes Work

We keep things chill but focused. Lead and follow Latin dance is huge here - I push for strong, clear connections and trusting your partner. Girls who lead? Absolutely. You’ll get both sides of the dance.

Whether you’re a total newbie or ready to work on your styling, there’s a spot for you. You can join regular batches, jump into weekend intensives, or try private lessons for extra attention.

The Motley Crew Vibe

Once you join, you’re part of our dance fam. We hype each other up, learn, and sometimes just vent about life. The energy is high, the support is real, and you’ll laugh as much as you dance.

My Story

Hi, we’re Motley Dance Company. Started by Minoti (yep, that’s me), this place is all heart and rhythm. I’ve been dancing and teaching for over fifteen years, and honestly, it’s my soul food. Motley was born so anyone, shy or bold, could find their groove. Life’s been a mix of sangeet dances, funny boat rides, and now, bachata with my little Krishna. We’re about joy, goofiness, and just moving, wherever you are.

My Work

Dance Styles We Teach - Salsa On1 & On2, Bachata (Tradicional & Moderna), Son, Pachanga, and more Latin forms.

Our Approach - Foundation first. We break technique down, vibe with the music, then build it up. Leaders, be bold!

More Than Steps - It’s workshops, parties, and beginner Latin dance workshops. We mess up, we laugh, we celebrate salsa’s layers.

Level Up Your Dancing - From social dancing tips to dance performance coaching, we show you how to grow your dance vocabulary.
