Brian is one of Holland’s best salsa dancers. He is in particular noted for his creativity on the dance floor. Brian has a unique style and never refuses a challenge. He eats, drinks and lives salsa. This is one of the main reasons he started his own show group, and given his addiction it was impossible to name the group anything but ‘Salsaddiction’.

This group consists of 10 dancers who have performed at several congresses, festivals, and events. They also participate in competitions.

In 2003 the show group came first in the ‘European Championship’. During the ‘Curaçao Salsa Tour’ Brian and Mechteld came third in 2004 and second in 2005. 2006 was a terrific year for Brian and Mechteld.

They won the second Dutch Open Salsa Championship, the EK European Salsa Championships in Bognor Regir and they were finalists in the top 10 of the world championship.

Brians slogan is: ‘Don’t think, just feel’.

Mechteld has many years experience as a ballet dancer, choreographer, entertainer and with theatre dance. She participated in countless national and international dance competitions. Even as a professional dancer, she became very successful.As a professional dancer she was always looking for something inspiring and dynamic. A few years later she came in contact with salsa and a new love was born. She concludes that salsa was exactly what she were looking for. After intensive salsa study in Holland and abroad as a salsa teacher, she established her own dance school and formation team. In this period she started a close cooperation with Brian Libier.

The reward for all her hard work came in 2006, when she received an award for Holland’s best salsa instructor. Mechteld’s specialization is foot technique, body-isolation and styling. The theme of her life is dance.
