behind
the scene
We are Sabina and Leia – two passionate dancers whose paths crossed back in 2012. What started as a simple encounter on the dance floor quickly grew into a story of love for movement, shared adventures, endless conversations, and a friendship that keeps surprising us with new layers every year.
Over time, we realized that our energy together doesn’t stop with dancing – it flows naturally into projects, teaching, and creating. That’s why we decided to become business partners, combining our strengths, creativity, and a healthy dose of playfulness. And this year, we felt it was time for something completely new, fresh, and a little bit daring: Slovenia’s very first Zouk Marathon.
