"Her style is unique and perfect for dancers with a darker soul."
I highly recommend Ethel AnimA, she is a great and patient tracher. Along with her assistant they provide great support for her students during the course. Her style is unique and suitable for dancers with darker soul, looking to learn how to create a fantasy on the stage.

ABOUT YOUR TEACHER
My name is Ethel AnimA — dancer, teacher, and creator of the AnimA Fusion Dance.
I have over 15 years of continuous dance practice, 5000+ hours of teaching, and more than 1200 students around the world.
-
As a guest teacher, I’ve taught at festivals and events in: Poland, Ukraine, Russia, Belarus, Hungary, France, Spain, Sweden, Estonia, as well as online.
-
I’ve organized 15+ international events, including the Tribal Festival and Luna Tribal Event.
-
As a performer, I’ve danced over 400 times — in solo pieces, group shows, and creative collaborations on the stages of festivals and original productions.
I’ve trained with iconic figures of Tribal Fusion Bellydance and FatChanceBellydance®, including:
Rachel Redfern, Zoe Jakes, Mira Betz, Michelle Sorensen, Ariellah, Violet Scrap, Julieta Maffia, Kira Lebedeva, Nagasita, Sara Lyn Vimana, Olga Meos, Melli Sarina, Moria Chappell, Lamia Barbara, Edenia, Anita Lalwani, Kristin Adams, and many more.
🖤 AnimA Fusion Dance is not just a dance.
It’s my personal movement language — created at the intersection of ritual, dark aesthetics, and feminine expression.
It helps women connect deeply with themselves, feel at home in their bodies, and learn to dance — even if they’ve never danced before.
I’ve developed a unique movement vocabulary called AnimA Shadows.
These expressive yet accessible combinations, based on my experience and style, help you feel the dance from the very first session.
You don’t just learn the movements — you experience them in your body, naturally and with ease.
✨ My approach is based on sensitivity, awareness, and gentle guidance.
I explain in a way that allows your body to understand and internalize the movement.
I create a space where you can meet yourself — without pressure or comparison.
My courses are known for their supportive atmosphere, emotional safety, signature aesthetics, and a deep, non-traditional approach with a dark and mystical flavor.
💫 Why it works:
— Gentle, accessible entry — no stress or overwhelm
— You’ll feel a shift after the very first class
— A caring atmosphere and support throughout and after the course
— You can always ask questions and receive thoughtful answers — during live sessions and in the group chat
— Students often say: this is not just a course — it’s a space where I can truly be myself
❤️ For me, it’s essential that each student opens up and finds her path back to her true self.
I’m here for you — during the course and after.
And I invite you to step into my dance world — and let me be your guide.
I truly believe in my classes and method - and I want you to feel completely safe joining.
