YOUR FACILITATOR: Katia Arskaya
Katia started teaching herself to shuffle in November 2018 as a way to connect with the house music she loves. Over time, dancing became more than just a hobby—it turned into a passion for learning, growing, and getting lost in the flow. She’s practiced endlessly and learned from shuffle instructors all over the world—California, D.C., Russia, Spain, France, and Canada. Her style is a mix of shuffling and cutting shapes, with hints of hip hop, jazz funk, and waacking. A big highlight for Katia recently was performing on stage at Departed, a huge house music party in Philly. It’s exciting to see shuffle dancing grow in the city, and she’s thrilled to be part of that wave by teaching this beginner class and helping more people discover the joy of shuffling!
