Tinze's Life Story | Book

The inspiring and empowering life story of a twerk superstar

How did a young woman in her twenties build a successful business empire in ten years?

In ten years, Tia-Maria "Tinze" Sokka has managed to build an international career as a twerk dancer and entrepreneur. He has reached millions of people around the world through social media and empowered people from different backgrounds with his dance classes to create a better relationship with their own body and themselves.

In the book, he reveals how he has done all of this - despite adversity. How does it feel to get up in front of a massive audience on a festival stage or to smile in dance class when your body is bruised from being abused? How can you manage to believe in what you're doing when criticism and belittling sometimes come from all directions?
The book is an honest, unadorned and inspiring story about Tinze, who has relentlessly pursued his own dreams and whose message is clear: everyone has the right to exist unapologetically and bring out their full potential.
