Harry Lim

Harry has been dancing since 2004 and has travelled all over the world to develop his passion for the dance. His main source of inspiration has been the enigmatic New York dance and choreographer, Frankie Martinez, and has trained extensively under him in Mambo and Afro-Latin funk. Harry also counts many others to have contributed to his understanding of Latin dances, most notably Sergio Jasso, director of Jasso Dance Academy, in the area of Bachata.

Aside from the Street Latin dances, Harry has influences from other dance forms such as  Ballet, Dunham technique, Horton technique, African/Contemporary, Hip Hop and Jazz. He has established himself as a fine dancer in the European and Asian salsa scene, renowned for his musical interpretation, unique style, boundless energy, and enjoyment of the dance. He has been invited as a guest instructor and performer for various events and congresses around Europe and Asia since 2010.

In order to further develop his expertise, Harry spent a month in Cuba learning the roots and culture of Afro-Cuban dances such as Rumba, Palo Congo, and the Orishas in 2016. In that same year he also went to Mexico to take part in Alma Latina’s famous summer intensive training programme in Salsa and Bachata.
