Marina Tolnai aka itsdancingmarina is a dancer and Latin pop princess originally from Hungary.

She is a huge advocate for expressing yourself and your creativity through music and movement and is the host of the podcast ‘Passion to Purpose’. The podcast invites people to grow together and to become the best versions of themselves and to explore the idea to shed aspects of themselves that no longer serve a purpose.

Not only is she a singer and dancer, she is also a trained Zumba instructor and runs dance classes regularly in London where she encourages people to make mistakes and just enjoy the creative expression.

I absolutely love the message that Marina promotes through her art and think more people need to be combining healing and music!

Marina manages to weave aspects of healing, growth, passion and truth into her creative ventures, and it is really refreshing to see someone be so unapologetically authentic.

Marina’s music is a spicy fusion of Latin, reggaeton and pop which makes for super catchy melodies and exciting beats!

Her newest single ‘Journey’ is the third single she has released this year and from the moment the opening beat comes in on this track, I am transported to a tropical island at a beach bar sipping pina coladas.

There is something super uplifting about this track and I think that is largely down to Marina and her overall vibe. She exudes positivity and confidence, and it really rubs off on the listener.

I feel like booking myself into one of her Zumba classes and embracing my inner Latin pop princess! Marina has inspired me to broaden my horizons and listen to more Latin music!
