Founder & Instructor
Dance Instructor & Studio Owner
Maryke’s dance journey began at just 4 years old. After years of training in acrobatics, modern, tap, hip-hop and funk, she qualified as a professional dance teacher in 2013. She spent eight years teaching alongside Nonnie de Lange before opening Rising Star Dance Studio in 2023.
To her, dance is so much more than movement — it is a journey of passion, personal growth and pure happiness.
“Everyone has the ability to dance. It’s not your ability holding you back — it’s your mindset.”
