Ronie is known for his musicality skills and smooth Kizomba style, influenced by foxtrot. Even though he makes advanced footwork and choreographies, he still emphasizes the importance of the Connection, Feeling & Flow with the dance partner. Having practiced meditation & mindfulness for 10 years, he says:

“The moment you realize that your soul is connected and ONE with your dance partner – and Everything else in this world – you become truly present in your movements and your dance experience reaches a whole new level.
