OUR HISTORY AS PROFESSIONAL DANCERS
Our story began in 2014, when Émilien met Téhina during a salsa class.
They then joined the dance association Picardia Loca, in Soissons en Picardie, where they danced together for several years.
For five years, they followed the courses of Fady Khalifa, mainly oriented towards Cuban salsa and traditional bachata, which allowed them to acquire solid foundations in these styles.
Subsequently, Émilien went to Dijon to continue his studies in STAPS. In parallel, he trained in bachata pedagogy at the Mansouri dance school, where he discovered his passion for teaching.
Two years later, he continued his studies in animation and sports in Nice to finalize his degree, while starting to teach, alone, bachata at the Fit’n Gym in Villeneuve-Loubet as well as at La Onda, the dance school founded by Hamidine Thiam.
During this time, Téhina continued to perfect herself by following Fady’s courses before joining Émilien in the south (06) so that they could teach together.
After several years of developing their artistic complicity, they chose to merge their influences. Coming from urban dances, they first explored sensual bachata, before creating their own style: the Urban Fusion Bachata, a unique blend of bachata and urban attitude, which they taught for three years.
During a festival in France, Melvin and Gatica noticed Émilien and Téhina and invited them to train with them and join the Influence team, in order to contribute to the development of this new style in full expansion.
Since then, Émilien and Téhina have been living from their passion, traveling every weekend across Europe and the world to teach, share and inspire through dance.
