Mariana arrived on time. Her costume and dancing were lovely.
Our DJ had some technical issues and at first couldn't get her
music going but she rolled with the punches and danced to another playlist without stressing out about it. Very professional.

I wish there were 10 stars ⭐️ because Mariana was AMAZING 💃. Besides being professional and responsive she was absolutely stunning. We hired her for a birthday party and asked so much of her and she came through and went above and beyond to make sure we had an incredible experience. I recommend her so highly. Here are some photos from our party. Beautiful dancer, but even more beautiful soul.

Mariana was an amazing addition to our wedding day!! I had her booked years in advance because I just knew that this art would just enhance our event. Mariana was so responsive and let my creativity flow along with hers and her performance was amazing. All of our guests enjoyed the special performance that we kept as a surprise. Don’t look any further, book her!!!
By far the best decision I made was to hire Mariana. She was so prompt in responding, worked with me in every aspect. Easy to communicate with. Was so professional and on time. My friends and I had a great time. Deft 10/10 would hire again and recommend
