Bio’s Bio’s Tamina Paris Dubbed a "Canadian Legend" in the world of dance and embodiment, Tamina Paris is a guide for those ready to reclaim their voice, power, and full expression. With over 25 years in the entertainment industry—including six years touring with Lady Gaga and choreographing for Drag Race winner Queen Priyanka—Tamina knows the courage it takes to be seen and to fully inhabit one’s truth. She now brings this experience to clients who feel creatively blocked, out of touch with their desires, or unsure of how to bring their full, authentic selves into their relationships and work. Tamina’s programs, including Pussy Church, Spiral Dance and Exalted Expression, are for individuals who are tired of shrinking, of playing neutral, and of holding back. Her clients often come to her feeling muted in their own lives, stuck in relationships that lack reciprocity, or disconnected from their sensual, expressive energy. Tamina’s work is about helping you move from a state of caution to a place of bold, unrestrained self-expression. She’s here to help you transform old fears of rejection or loss into the ability to communicate openly, set clear boundaries, and bring your desires and truth forward without apology. Tamina’s approach integrates embodiment, authentic self-expression, and the power of intimacy with oneself—building a foundation that radiates out to every connection and opportunity. Her clients leave her programs knowing how to stand in their own presence, articulate their needs, and attract relationships and opportunities that resonate with their truth. This is more than dance; it's an invitation to step into your fullest power. Tamina's clients, including those who have gone on to tour with artists like Missy Elliott and Drake or become transformative entrepreneurs, learn to lead with confidence that’s grounded, magnetic, and fully aligned with who they are. With Tamina, it’s not about changing who you are but about embracing and embodying every part of you, so you can finally bring your whole self to the table—and own it.

Together Hello Lovers, We have a confession… The truth is we spent 2 years living off-grid chopping wood, reading by candlelight, and getting eaten by mosquitos 😅 Then we set off for an adventure where we brought Spiral Dance to Montreal, Los Angeles, & Tulum. When we got back to our empty cabin on 174 acres of land with no one to share it with, we realized what we value most in this life… is community. Most importantly, a community where we have connections that fuel our purpose in the world. So now, We’re Back in the city!!!!! And we can’t wait to share Spiral Dance as a contribution to building conscious relationships in our community where we can all be touched by the power of love itself. 🤎A love that is multi-faceted and goes far beyond romanticism 🤎A love that binds individuals into community. 🤎A love of who we truly are. Our vision is to create conscious dance parties with sexy soulful R&B music where, at the centre, there’s a shared language of dance. We can't wait to meet you on the dance floor. Tamina & Michael
