Alina Paredes
Alina started her dance record from an early age with Flamenco and modern jazz, later focusing on hip-hop, jazz and salsa.
She has been studying Bellydance and Fusions for 17 years.
She has trained intensively with Carolena Nericcio, Zoe Jakes and Suhaila Salimpour directly at their studios in the U.S.A. And taken as many classes as she could with other instructors from the Fusion scene in San Francisco.
She has explored other styles such as Classical Ballet, Japanese Butoh, Contemporary dance, Hip Hop and salsa by taking intensives, weekly classes and other resources.
General Skills certified since 2010 and FatChanceBellydance® CERTIFIED STUDIO since 2015, she set a clear objective to promote and teach this art form.
With this goal in mind, she's produced, taught and performed at various dance events in Mexico, the United States, Costa Rica and Spain. Always sharing her work from the heart. As well as making significant efforts to stay up to date.
She is currently working as a Social Media Manager and Assistant to the Director, DeAnna Freeman, at FatChanceBellydance®University.
She's completed the FCBD® Technique for Teachers certification in the UK. And has been recently accepted in the Advanced Teacher Training Program.
Her objectives remain the same: To always dance and promote community. As well as advocating for solid Dance technique, true to its original form.
