SHAKA DANCE® connects dance, fitness, instructor education, licensing, events, commerce and technology in one international brand ecosystem.

SHAKA DANCE® grew from a dance & coaching workout that brings together Afro, Dancehall and Hip Hop influences with cardiovascular work, muscular training and motivational coaching.
The brand is built around passion, culture, confidence, community and instructor development — the foundation for the wider SHAKA ecosystem being developed today.
Each program now has its own visual identity while remaining part of one premium SHAKA brand system.
