ABOUT ME
Welcome! My name is Amaya Lanae, and I’m a professional heels dancer, instructor, choreographer, and model based in California. I’ve held a passion for movement, expression, and creative exploration since a young age. That love for dance has only deepened over the years, and I’ve been fortunate to share it with people from all walks of life. Through this journey, I’ve come to understand the power of community and have connected with so many incredible creatives along the way.
I’m truly honored to be inspired by my students just as much as I hope to inspire them! I’ve been teaching independently since February 2022, and since then, I’ve brought my knowledge of the heels dance style to over 15 studios across the United States. My classes are designed to be inclusive, supportive, and challenging—a space where dancers of all levels can build confidence, express themselves freely, and push their boundaries through new movement.
Each new project helps me grow, and I’m so grateful for the amazing photographers and cinematographers I’ve worked with—they’ve truly helped build my confidence in this art form. I’ve modeled for clothing brands, concept shoots, magazines, and artist visuals, and I’m excited to continue growing and sharing my art with the world.

In class, I encourage my students to explore beyond their comfort zones, express themselves authentically, and elevate by embracing challenges.
My classes are open to dancers and people of all level, gender, and background. Throughout this space we find and build community within each other. here, we learn to celebrate ourselves the same as we celebrate others!
I hope any one who takes my class, leaves feeling accomplished and more open!
