About this listen
Samer Georges, co-founder of Ya Salsa and creator of House of Godfather, shares how a simple love for dance grew into a 22-year nonprofit movement rooted in community, inclusivity, and joy. From his early days performing to building a space where dancers from all backgrounds come together, Samer opens up about the lessons he’s learned on leadership, mentorship, and staying true to your purpose. He also talks about the evolution of Latin dance culture in Michigan, the art of connection on the dance floor, and how creating safe, elegant, and welcoming spaces continues to drive his purpose today.
