Fun DANCE with Celestina & INDIA: Enriching Movement and Connection for Children and Families

Fun DANCE with Celestina & INDIA

A Celebration of Joy and Movement

Fun DANCE with Celestina & INDIA is an interactive dance experience created by me and my six-year-young daughter, where we celebrate the beauty of dance and the pure joy that shines through us when we move. Dance and music are as natural to us as breathing—it’s how we express ourselves, connect with each other, and radiate our shared happiness.

I've been dancing since the age of five, and over the years, my journey has taken me across a spectrum of professional experiences, including being featured in the world-renowned movie Mamma Mia! With 17 years of experience as a dance educator and practitioner, I’ve had the honour of opening my own dance school, Soul 2 Dance, and sharing the gift of movement with countless students. My work extends beyond traditional dance education, incorporating poetry, expression, and holistic well-being, which all converge beautifully in Fun DANCE with Celestina & INDIA. It is more than just an experience—it’s a world where movement is seen as storytelling, and every step is a celebration of life, culture, and joy.

Together, we share the rhythm of movement and celebrate cultural and personal expression, offering young children, families, educators, and caregivers the opportunity to experience the power of these art forms anywhere in the world. Fun DANCE with Celestina & INDIA reaches beyond family spaces, connecting with festivals, events, school's and community groups, engaging those who's work is in service to families and community building. By staying true to our authentic expression we blend dance styles like Hip hop, Contemporary and Afrobeats with spoken word poetry. We create spaces both physical and virtual- where children can naturally explore their creativity, emotions and immerse themselves in the roots of our offerings.

Our program extends beyond in-person sessions, sharing online content that allows everyone to engage with Fun DANCE with Celestina & INDIA wherever they are. This means that no matter where you are, the joy and connection we foster can be experienced in your home.

Fun DANCE with Celestina & INDIA aims to show storytelling in it's many facets. Dancing, spoken word poetry, singing, reading, rap, art, and style are all ways in which we do this. Through our offerings we encourage children and families to express, connect and move to the beat of their heART's. We honour the joy that dance so evidently reveals inside of you.

Because DANCE is so much more than movement!

What people are saying about Fun DANCE

"Celestina and India are wonderful! Polite, professional, enthusiastic and a joy to be around. The children had a great time working with them.
Throughout the week, the children became more immersed in the project and their confidence grew, this is thanks to Celestina's great teaching and dedication.
I believe Celestina and India were spending a huge amount of time each day travelling to us, using public transport. This must have been a huge effort with a young child and lots of equipment. Thank you so much Celestina!
The parents were so moved in the performance on Friday, parents were crying as they were so proud to see their child joining in with something in this way, which they have never done before!
Celestina is organised and clearly very passionate about the arts and her job and we would 100% have her back in the future.

Thank you for inviting us to be part of the Harlow Creates Be Wild. Be Happy. Move! Project. It's been great and the children have got a lot from it and the adults have loved dancing along"!

We always receive excellent feedback from parents, carers and children that participate in these classes. Celestina brings a unique and engaging style to encourage families to explore dance and movement representing a range of cultural dance genres."

"Today me and Ellis went to my friend's Afrobeats Special Workshop. It was the most fun time I've EVER had at a mum and baby group. No alcohol- just mums & loads of kids dancing, running, smiling and laughing freely. This is what Motherhood should feel like everyday! Thank you Cele. I HIGHLY recommend her workshop for parties and events."

"Dancing class with Celestina and little India was absolutely amazing, she is full of positive energy, creativity and her beautiful smile is contagious. After classes with Celestina my son really enjoy dancing everywhere. Her classes are not only excellent for the little ones but also for the parents who can relax and recharge with stretching. Highly recommended!"
