Self Care and Healing

Through Dance


Hi, I’m Halima Mahdee. I am the founder of SambaMix with Queen Mawuta. I am so excited to share my passion for people and dance with you. I offer healing dance classes and other special events to connect people to others and themselves. Get to me more by reading my about page.

Movement With a Message

SambaMix is more than a dance class every once in a while. It’s a process of self-discovery and discovery. It’s finding a community for you. I like to say it’s “Movement With a Message.”

Each class has a message. I don’t want you to just come, talk, sweat, and be done. I want to provide you with encouragement, confidence, with a positive sense of self. I am passionate about empowering all people, especially women of color.

There is a lot you can expect from my classes. Learn more about my dance classes by clicking here.

In the spirit of getting to know one another on a deeper level, I but on special events during the year. These events are for about 15-20 individuals who are open to learning about others' world views when it comes to a wide array of topics. 

These special events have food, games, and intentional conversation. We will talk about complex subjects like love, racism, abuse, finances, etc. The goal is to leave these events closers to one another through acceptance.
