Yeya is an accredited and accomplished Swedish dancer who has been working all over Europe and across the Atlantic. She is one of the hottest choreographer/teachers with a known reputation of a creative prowess second to none.
Her style of hip-hop is inspired by popping and jazz and she is recognized for a smooth savvy street style that is convoyed by an adjacent jazz discipline attained from her long education. Her uniqueness is in her ability to adapt new flavor while merging the old using the whole essence of the music and the lyrical content of the song to create an electrifying choreography.
She has handpicked a few of the best young dancers to train to her own educational program called "Tefnut." This in its own has created a buzz on her leadership abilities and qualities. Yeya has won the respect by many in the industry, both as a dancer and choreographer.
