About Eletricat
Amor & Axé! » Love & Positive Energy!
Olá!! I journey through this "present" life by daily directing all my energy to keeping the balance, while hopefully also inspiring and strengthening others as I evolve and grow through my love and passion in my creative art & rhythm.
When I was still very little, like 6 yrs old, I felt like a true Amazon warrior, I wanted to live in the forrests, and I strongly wanted to make a difference to this planet by fighting evil, and protecting all life for more justice and balance! So, around the age 13, when I realised killing myself in a forrest war in Brazil might not actually be a solution and make a change to the messed up cycle, I chose the medium dance, music, the arts and entertainment, which was what I felt in my heart I could do best and was passionate about, to reach out to all souls and spread positive energy, even if it meant one soul at a time! It really feels like planting seeds of Amor & Axé ~ Love & Positive Energy.
At the age of 17 I told my dad I wanted to teach my dance classes, with his encouragement and enthusiasm he very excitedly talked to everyone at his tennis club who let me the space to teach. Very quickly I went from 5 to 15 students and realised that experience was not what mattered, but my positive energy! These were such fun classes! I still have lots of visual memories of all of us in circle jumping smiling. The power of happiness!
While teaching I went on to get a Degree in Architecture and studied HND dance at college in Glalgow. I attended various teaching methodology courses too while on my many trips to Brazil teaching English at schools where I also took many of my students on tours.
I started in the music club scene with a little help from my dear friend Duncan Kane , salsa dj at the time and Farah Portela who got me a dj slot at glasgow's then first latin bar. I started also teaching at those venues & performing.
My adult dance classes are a holistic blend of Afro-Brazilian, Latin and other African rooted dances with Fitness, Yoga and Meditation promoting the complete electrictrifying experience!
From when I started teaching at age 17, my dance class has evolved a lot, but kept the main focus which is to promote a complete holistic experience! Today, basically through these dances and the awareness of the Afro-Brazilian Goddess Archetypes (Energies refflected in nature) I try help especially women strengthen their roots, find balance from the centre of their bodies, liberate negative energy that is trapped, tap into their own inner healing power to cleanse themselves and promote an overall sensation of happiness and freedom.
I also teach kids and adults in my unique Girassol Method blending freestyle expressive dance, Capoeira, Music, Yoga & Meditation.
I have more that 15 yrs experience educating kids (www.wingson.me) through the arts and for 5 yrs I was directing the movement part of the project Cool School at primary schools across all of Perth & Kinross where I performed on stage alongside renowned musician Nana Vasconcelos and Ronnie Goodman.
My dancers and I have performed my choreographed dance shows at various events & festivals across the UK, Melas, including Glastonbury Festival for more than 6 yrs consecutevely, hen parties, Weddings too!
At age 14 my first ever dance performance was with my dear friends from MacUmba band at Stirling Castle! I went on to perform with them across the uk and Europe - Madeira island, Portugal, France, Italy, Germany various times. Around same time I also started to work closely with the talented Ronnie Goodman and his band Rhythm Wave with whom I had so much fun performing together at various festivals including Glastonbury for many years consecutevely! I got as far as Russia with the cool respected brothers DJ Tigerstyle for the UK Flavours Festival and was on one of their music videos.
I DJ a huge eclectic selection of Brazilian music from old to new. My culturally rich live arts club night called Eletrica't CARNAVAL NIGHTS in Glasgow got to attract around 600 people through the door monthly and we managed to raise more than 2k money which I donated to kid's charities across Brazil.
Recently, 11/2023, I concluded my newest project: ∆§†π∆|★9 FILM - A Devotional Dance Journey by Eletricat in Fuerteventura.
Dedicated to the Light of Creation & all Warriors of Light and channeled by nature! ∆§†π∆|★9 ~ is a 37.09 min Dance Film that will take you on a deeply moving journey of the complete cycle of life portrayed by my embodiment of the major Afro-Brazilian & Egyptian Goddesses looks & dances and the nature of the woman body in motion & union with music and the unique exotic natural environment of Fuerteventura! Filmed & edited by the talented eye of the videographer together with the choreographed movements and ideas by me, I hope it will promote an enlighting, conscious & completly electrifying astral magical experience of pure courage & self-love through the union of art, creativity and rhythm in motion.
