Raw chocolate and dancing are part of who I am. I have been dancing since a very young age and always LOVED raw chocolate, I mean really dark raw chocolate. I wanted to start early on, but my parents could not afford it.
I was asking all the time but with the multiple refusals, I realized I had to stop dreaming. As soon as I started to work at age 13, I paid for my dance classes. My first attempt was in Modern Jazz.
It didn’t do the trick though. Jazz was not my thing.
By age 14, I was still playing basketball and I wanted to get the beautiful moves that you could see on the playground wherever I was playing. Especially with the guys of the slums I grew up with. They had such an amazing style. I wanted to match their skills.
I just love to move into the music. I also find that the physical strength you need to get into the steps and the creativity or freedom you can express is just infinite.
It’s like making a beautiful raw chocolate treat that would be amazingly good, but also good for you. It all starts from the right raw purest ingredients found in nature, the love and energy you put inside. Like HNINA dark chocolate!
I’ve been dancing every day at least 10 minutes. My schedule is pretty busy but each day after exercising, I dance.
A few years ago I started belly dance.
It has been also an amazing discovery. Isolation of your hips, each section of your tummy, your shoulders your body as a whole is a matter of concentration and control.
I love discovery, learning and bridging gaps.
Now you know that I love mixing disciplines. This is the reason why Gourmet for me has to be healthy and healthy gourmet.
Meanwhile, most chocolate makers use impersonal machines and dead, toxic, or inflammatory ingredients.
They don’t use pesticides and do it the old-fashioned way. The raw chocolate is good because of their hard work!!!
You are as happy as you are healthy. What you put inside your body matters. All you need is care.
That’s why we want to be happy and choose ingredients that are the healthiest to reach this goal.
HNINA dark chocolates are still delicious, loaded with antioxidants, and full of nutrients. Nothing else.

In today's world, we think about food as something that is pre-made, already done for you. Those foods are most of the time addictive and made to make you come back to it (sugar is 8 times more addictive than cocaine and I am not even talking about rancid hydrogenated fat).
At Hnina, we stay away from sweet or too sweet and from processed bad saturated bad fat. Food that is made with scientific "healthy sweet" or refined fat are not.
My life is refined sugar free (including coconut sugar or agave) since I was pregnant with twins 8 years ago.
I have been a dark chocolate addict all my life and yes, at times I was more curvaceous than others.
You know why, because I did not know what sugar could do to me. You always think, that's OK, I will burn it off tomorrow but then you do not realize all the glycation, acidification and inflammatory reactions that can happen in your body while consuming refined glucose or refined fructose.
