Karina Santamaría del Solar

Founder & Lead Instructor

Meet Karina

Born in the heart of Latin America and proudly rooted in her Peruvian heritage, Karina Santamaría del Solar is the founder and visionary behind Latino Blast — a vibrant fusion of Latino dance and high-energy fitness.

Although she graduated in Law and Political Science, Karina quickly realized that success without passion isn't fulfillment. After moving to Australia over two decades ago, she chose rhythm over routine and transformed her love of dance into a movement that empowers women to build confidence, reconnect with their bodies, and rediscover joy through motion.

Karina is more than a choreographer or instructor — she is a leader and creator of experiences. Her classes are designed to meet you exactly where you are and elevate you beyond your limits.

"Dance is more than movement. It is identity. It is resilience. It is connection."

— Karina Santamaría del Solar

Each session blends culture, strength, and celebration. You don't just work out — you return to yourself.
