Oti Mabuse is a dancer, choreographer and TV talent show judge. She has enjoyed great success on the BBC show Strictly Come Dancing and is one of only two professional dancers to win the glitterball trophy twice.

Oti was born in South Africa in 1990, the year that Nelson Mandela was released from prison, and dance was a central part of her life from a very early age: her mother had set up a dance school so that black children could learn ballroom and Latin dancing. Oti followed in the footsteps of her two older sisters, winning dance competitions in South Africa and taking part in international events. She competed in Blackpool when she was just 11 years old, and retains strong memories of the elegant Tower Ballroom and the poor weather.

Oti's father trained as a lawyer and her mother worked in education, and they felt that their youngest daughter needed the security of a professional qualification, so Oti studied civil engineering at university. Shortly before qualifying, she decided to abandon her degree and become a professional ballroom dancer, joining her sister Motsi in Germany.

She first appeared on Strictly Come Dancing in 2015 and has recently announced her departure from the show. She lives in London with her husband, the dancer Marius Iepure.



奥蒂-马布塞是一位舞蹈家、编舞家和电视选秀节目评委。她在BBC节目《Strictly Come Dancing》中取得了巨大的成功，是仅有的两位两次赢得闪光球奖杯的职业舞者之一。

奥蒂1990年出生于南非，那一年纳尔逊-曼德拉获释出狱，舞蹈在她很小的时候就是她生活的核心部分：她的母亲建立了一所舞蹈学校，让黑人儿童学习交际舞和拉丁舞。奥蒂追随她两个姐姐的脚步，赢得了南非的舞蹈比赛并参加了国际赛事。她在11岁时参加了黑池的比赛，并对优雅的塔楼舞厅和恶劣的天气保留了强烈的记忆。

奥蒂的父亲接受过律师培训，她的母亲从事教育工作，他们认为他们的小女儿需要专业资格的保障，所以奥蒂在大学学习土木工程。在获得资格前不久，她决定放弃她的学位，成为一名专业的交际舞者，与她的姐姐莫西一起在德国工作。

她于2015年首次出现在《Strictly Come Dancing》节目中，最近宣布离开该节目。她与她的丈夫、舞蹈家马里乌斯-伊普雷住在伦敦。
