About Molly

About Molly Having worked as a professional salsa dancer in New York City since 2016, I have built a reputation as a respected dancer in the industry through my work with the world-renowned Yamuleé Dance Company. The foundation of my career comes from years of full-time dance training, beginning in my home country of Sweden (5 years), followed by Copenhagen and Los Angeles (1 year), before moving to New York City. In New York, I trained for nearly four years at the renowned Broadway Dance Center, where I developed a strong technical background and versatile foundation for my dance career. I danced professionally with Yamuleé Dance Company for six years before launching my solo career in 2022. Since then, I have been teaching, performing, choreographing, and traveling internationally through dance.

  • What age did you start playing sport? Tell us about this time or moment in your life.

    I started dancing back home in Sweden at the age of 15. It was right when I was starting high school and my best friend asked me if I wanted to go with her to take 2 dance classes a week for a semester and I said yes!
    It turned out to be the best thing and most fun I've ever had and I right away signed up for 16 dance courses for the following semester (16h/week)! I fell in love right away with dance and tried all dance styles offered at the dance academy.
  • What are your favourite sports; those that you practice at a high level, a simple hobby, and a sport that you'd still like to discover?

    Dance is my main "sport" "art form" and passion in life.
  • Dance is my main "sport" "art form" and passion in life.

    Since I started dancing Salsa it has given me so much community, high energy, motivation and inspiration, and I really want to share that with others as well! It's such a fun dance form and so engaging and interactive since you dance with a dance partner. I just love it and have so much fun doing it myself that I want to teach as many people as possible who would be interested in learning it!
  • Do you have a sporting achievement that you're particularly proud of?

    Yes I won the Swedish competition "Talang" which is equivalent to "America's Got Talent" and won the first price with my dance crew from my dance studio.

    I've also danced on stage for the salsa artist La India, live in concert at Barclays Center in front of thousands of people with was an amazing experience!
  • How have your achievements and challenges made you a better sportsperson?

    I have been through a lot of hard training being a full time dance student at Broadway Dance Center for almost 4 years dancing 18h/week strenuous dance, and at the same time being part of the world renowned salsa company Yamulee Dance Company for 6 years training hard almost every night for multiple hours. This has given me the perseverance and the strong mindset to really hone my craft as a dancer.
  • If you had to go for a jog with a famous athlete, who would you choose? And what questions would you ask them?

    Michael Jordan.

    How do you stay on top?

    How do you change your training and your mentality as you're getting older and more seasoned in the game?
  • How do you help people stay motivated?

    It's a mindset game. I try to lead by example and by letting people know that you have to trust the process. Sometimes it may feel as you reach a plateau or that you don't quite get it in the beginning… but it's just to keep at it! Trust the process, don't be too hard on yourself and know that everyone's development curve is different.
  • What makes you a Superprof in sports?

    I'm in this country because I'm the best at what I do in my own country, and have been granted an artist visa for my "extraordinary ability in arts and science" which really proves that I'm one of the best in my field. I've trained with the best of the best in the salsa world and I have a well versed dance background from numerous years of dance education both classical and commercial.
