proballroom 3 tips to a queen-like posture 👇

Notice how you’re sitting right now. Shoulders slouched? Muscles tight?
I bet you don’t even notice these little details in everyday life. But here’s the truth: no designer dress or bag can fix what comes from within.. and work with your body is the best way to start.

💃 I’ve been dancing ballroom for 30 years and teaching many women who come with slouched shoulders, tired posture, and the weight of everyday life written all over their bodies. And every time, DANCE becomes the tool that lifts them back up. Both physically and emotionally.

Because when you PRACTICE POSTURE THROUGH DANCE, you don’t just move better...
You start carrying yourself like a woman who has found her spark again 🔥

Save these 3 tips to begin with:

1️⃣ Imagine your crown lifting to the sky while your heels stay grounded.
2️⃣ Let your shoulders melt down and your chest open with ease.
3️⃣ Feel your feet rooting like anchors — press through big toe, little toe, and heel, and grow tall from that strength.

proballroom So apparently this is the video that made us famous 😅
Not world championships, not TV shows, not 30 years of dancing… Our wedding dance 💍
Millions of views later, people still ask how it all happened.

Did you know that we actually WON our entire wedding???
😍🤯 Yes, a $100,000 wedding in America.
(Still sounds crazy when I say it)

If you want the full story — how we won it, what it was like, and what it really meant —
comment the word “WEDDING” below 👇

💡 Fun fact:
The most popular questions I still get are:
1️⃣ “Where is this dress from?”
2️⃣ “Can we see the full dance video to learn it?”

And I have answers to both 😏

If you want to know where the dress is from — comment “DRESS”

And if you want to see the full video and learn this dance — stay tuned 💃

proballroom My reels about posture divided people into two groups:
😍 those who got inspired and understood it’s all about presence,
😑 and those who said, “You’d never walk or stand like that in real life — it’s too much.”

But maybe now is the perfect time to be a little extra.
To take up space.
To finally be the version of yourself you’ve always wanted to be.

Maybe posture isn’t just about posture.

I’ve never seen any hobby change people’s lives as much as DANCE does — inside and out.
It starts with posture and ends with how people see you when you walk into a room.

proballroom Who let her out on the dance floor? 🤯🫣

I got so much support on my previous reels, where we discussed your favorite performances of ours, that I got inspired to share another one! This was my “drunk” performance; many of you probably haven’t seen it before.

Definitely, you don’t want to show up tipsy to practice, but there are a few other red flags that can make your dance partner run away.

1. You keep teaching him.
You’re not his coach.
Lost your balance? His fault.
Missed the step? Also his fault.

Fix it: Accountability, darling. And let the teacher teach.

2. You’re constantly unhappy.
With your dancing. Your arm. Your shoes. The music. The lighting.
That energy? Spreads like glitter — and not the fun kind.

Fix it: Bring the vibe up. No one wants to dance in a cloud of negativity.

3. You make it a solo show.
Unannounced styling explosions. Dramatic spins.
He’s just trying to survive out there.

Fix it: Remember, it’s a partnership, not a talent show.

4. You’re not giving him anything to lead.
Light as a feather? More like invisible.
He has no idea where your weight is, what leg you’re on, or if you’re still even on the floor.

Fix it: Give tone. Ground yourself. Be part of the equation.

5. You apologize every 3 seconds.
We get it — you’re polite. But he’s not made of porcelain.

Fix it: Own it. Laugh. Move on.

Your dance partner didn’t sign up for therapy, emotional damage, and cardio all in one 😅

If there are always “issues,” be honest and ask yourself:
Is he really the problem… or might it be you? 😌

But all it took was 90 seconds of a Barbie performance to go viral.
Life’s funny like that 💁‍♀️

You know what it feels like to commit to something real.
You’ve lived in your body long enough to want to enjoy it — not judge it.
You know the value of time, effort, and energy.
You’re not here for trends. You’re here for transformation.

And that? That makes you powerful 🔥

You are exactly on time.

if your shoulders are down and you walk into the room like you’re afraid to be seen.

👉 Posture.
It’s not just about standing straight — it’s how you carry yourself.
It’s confidence, energy, presence.

🗒️ For better posture — feel your spine right above the middle of your feet. Not on your toes. Not on your heels. Right in the center. That’s where balance — and elegance — begins.

And the best part?
As your posture improves, your confidence does too.
It works both ways 😉
