ECLIPSE: Fusion x Heels Intensive by Tomi & Elizabeth

Tomi Lappi is a Finnish coach, choreographer and dancer. His career started with ballroom dancing in East Helsinki and has led him to be one of the international stars of contemporary cabaret. As a multidisciplinary dancer and artist he has danced and created for stages from Lio Ibiza to Las Vegas and is currently one of the performers and choreographers for the Italian Company Mystere Worldwide.

Tomi's take on dance is a unique mix of technique, sensuality, personality and vulnerability and his classes and workshops are based on a holistic approach that includes hard work and getting both the mind and the body on the same page to help his students dance with presence and experience pleasure when dancing.

Elizabeth Romaniv is a professional High Heels dancer, teacher, choreographer, and performer from Ukraine, based in Finland. She is the founder of LI SPACE — a dance studio and creative brand for dancers and teachers who want to develop and refine their skills.

With 14 years of professional ballroom dance training and performance, Elizabeth built a strong foundation in technique, musicality, discipline, and stage presence, which continue to shape her approach to High Heels today. For Elizabeth, High Heels is more than a dance trend — it is a structured practice that combines technique, body mechanics, musicality, control, and self-expression. Her teaching focuses on developing body awareness, strength, and confidence while helping dancers understand not only how they move, but why they move that way.

She creates a supportive and motivating environment where growth comes through discipline, consistency, and curiosity, encouraging every student to take ownership of their progress and creative development.
