The Art of Expressive Flamenco

Many dancers know the steps but still feel blocked — held back by self-judgment, overthinking, stiffness, or the fear of “not doing it right,” which dims their expression. This series is for dancers of all levels, and will help you break through those inner barriers so your dancing feels authentic, confident, and fully alive. Through Michela’s 4 Pillars of Expressive Flamenco: Mind, Body, Spirit, Skills, dancers will explore:

• How your mind shapes your expression — releasing self-judgment, strengthening self-belief, and stepping into unapologetic presence.
• How to inhabit your body more fully, feeling the music, embodying emotion, and grounding into physical confidence.
• How to awaken your spirit, bringing your true personality, artistry, and uniqueness to the surface.
• How to refine your skills — anchoring your expression in palo rhythm, soniquete, accents, and musicality so your confidence is supported by structure.

Through guided exercises, improvisation, reflection, and technique integration, this class series helps you shift from performing steps… to expressing yourself authentically. This is Flamenco from the inside out.

This can be delivered as an introductory workshop and a multi-week class series to deepen your Flamenco presence, confidence, and authentic expression.

Shifting from Operator to Strategic Leader

Many business owners hit a ceiling because they’re stuck operating in the weeds — juggling everything and reacting to urgency instead of leading strategically. In this transformative session, Michela shows you how to break that cycle by stepping out of the day-to-day grind, adopting a strategic leadership mindset, and building trust-driven systems so you can scale sustainably.

You’ll learn to recognize where you’re leading from, shift from control to clarity, and lead through systems and trust — enabling you to grow your business with greater focus, flow, and long-term momentum. Scaling your business isn’t about doing more, it’s about leading differently.

The Science & Soul of Effective Communication

Most speakers focus on content, but the most memorable talks are crafted from something deeper. In this dynamic and engaging workshop, Michela reveals what truly makes a presentation land: clarity of message, emotional resonance, embodied presence, and audience-centered meaning-making. Blending psychology, neuroscience, and practical speaking techniques, Michela guides participants to shift from simply “presenting” to truly connecting — to themselves, to their message, and to their audience.

Through her four-pillared approach — Science, Mindset, Body, and Skills — students learn how to engage attention, manage nerves, structure compelling messages, and deliver with confidence. This powerful training helps presenters show up with clarity, authenticity, and presence, elevating their communication from technical to transformative.

Perfect for researchers, leaders, business owners, and emerging speakers who want to speak in a way that resonates, persuades, and inspires.

Master Self-Awareness to Unlock a High-Performing Culture, Improve Communication, and Increase Engagement

Many teams struggle with misunderstandings, conflicts, and disengagement, often caused by leaders and team members not speaking the same language. When personalities clash and leaders fail to align their management style with their team’s unique strengths, then productivity and engagement suffer. 

In this insightful and dynamic session, Michela and her Master Trainer will introduce the science of personality and its impact on team dynamics. By mastering self-awareness and personality science, leaders can foster better communication, resolve conflicts, and build high-performing teams. Through the scientifically proven B.A.N.K.️® Methodology, leaders will learn how to understand their team members on a deeper level, align their leadership approach, and create an environment where everyone thrives.
