Listen Later

Dancer Motsi Mabuse kicks off season six with all the glamour, energy and determination you’d expect from a Strictly judge but she also shares the books that have helped her manifest the life she enjoys today.

Mosti Mabuse is a world-class professional dancer and has been bringing fun to the Strictly Come Dancing ballroom as a Judge since 2019. Originally from South Africa, Motsi started dancing at a young age. She studied Law at university, until she decided to dedicate her life to dance and moved to Germany.  She won the South African Latin American title eight times. In 2013 she became the German Latin dance champion with her now-husband whom she also runs a dance school with. Her book Finding My Own Rhythm documents the ups and downs, romances and heartbreaks, the obstacles and adversity, and the long hours that have led her to her success.

Motsi’s book choices are: 
** Eat, Pray, Love by Elizabeth Gilbert 
** The Secret by Rhonda Byrne
** You Got Anything Stronger by Gabrielle Union
**  Rachel’s Holiday by Marian Keyes
** Untamed by Glennon Doyle
