Salsa, Bachata and Cha Cha are my main area of focus for almost 7 years. I started dancing Salsa on1 with Jimmy Rumba from Los Rumberos and moved to training in on2 with Proyecto Barrio Dance Company, both in Atlanta. I trained with the student team before spending several years traveling and performing with the Semi-pro team. During that time I also trained and performed with a number of Latin teams including Los Bachateros/Bachata Soul, Maria Voisin Dancers, and Bachatamante/Amante Dance Company as well as my own choreographies and intensive dance challenges. Over the years I have taken numerous private lessons and workshops with renown local and world class instructors including Afrocuban and Folkloric. In addition, I've taken classes in practically every style of ballroom, swing, Latin and even Argentine Tango though I've mainly focused on Waltz.

I've been ballroom dancing for almost 4 years now, it's become something that I love and want to eventually make into a career. I spent 3 and a half years as a student at Arthur Murray reaching the Bronze 3 level in all dances, and Bronze 4 in a few others, although as a follower I've been lead in silver patterns. I've left Arthur Murray and am now looking to move into the path of becoming a dance teacher. As far as dance styles go American Smooth is definitely my strength, I also really enjoy West Coast Swing, Bachata and Salsa. My background comes from competitive Figure Skating so I bring some of that into my dance, when I was younger I used to do lifts on and off ice and would love to get back into doing lifts and stunts.

I love to dance: primarily Blues dancing, but also East/West Coast Swing, jazz/free-style; interested in learning salsa and a-tango. I'm half Japanese and half Scott/Irish, and used to be a semi-professional jazz dancer back in college.
I host a weekly Blues dance called South Bay Fusion. I Lead and Follow, and teach beginning WCS and Blues (Lead/Follow).
Although I avoid competitions, the two WCS Jack & Jills that I've had my arm twisted to enter, I've won (thanks to two incredible partners).

My name is Slavik. I am 23 years old. I was born in Russia but lived in Canada for the past 13 years. I have a degree in business. I work as an accountant but I don't enjoy it, yet. Sports are my passion. I discovered dance a couple of years ago and have been hooked ever since. I am not a pro yet but I'm sure that with a "little" hard work anything is possible. Until recently, I've only been dancing in the Pre-Champ latin category. Ballroom is different but I'm starting to enjoy it too.
My goals are:
-Champ latin/Pre-Champ ballroom by summer 2010
-Champ latin/Champ ballroom by 2011
-train in Europe for a year in the ballroom style
-come back to Canada and compete for the Canadian Championship
-once I turn 27, go back to Russia and train in Latin for a year
-top 5 in Canada in ten dance by 28
-top 50 in the world by 29.

Dancing is my passion! I enjoy all styles of partner dancing, and I travel throughout the bay area for quality instruction and social dancing. I take regular private lessons along with series classes and workshops.
My ballroom training is primarily in the DVIDA Syllabus for the American Smooth, American Rhythm, and Nightclub style dances, and I studied Argentine Tango in Buenos Aires for seven weeks in the Spring of '08. I am interesting in learning International Standard.
While I am primarily a social dancer, I have performed on stage in an Argentine Tango formation routine as well as all the usual student-teacher medal ball and studio showcase events. I am willing to train for amateur competition with the right partner.

I have moved to Middlesex a couple of years ago and not danced at all. I am seeking venues in and around London and greater London and would like to have a regular dance partner to improve. Not seeking a permanent partner even though I am single, I am light on my feet (I would like to think so) and have danced mainly ceroc and a little salsa. Done ballroom but that was a long time ago. I would like to socialize more too so if you are single too and able to socialize would be great.

I have been dancing for about 20 years. At times I have been intense, dancing 5 days a week and training privately. Other times, months will pass and I will only have gone once or twice. I completed bronze 4 course in ballroom last year at Arthur Murray in San Jose. These days I usually dance ballroom, but occasionally do country western as well. In general I have strong skills, but there are only a half dozen dances that I do often enough for me to possess a large repertoire. At many others I would describe myself as a very experienced dancer with just beginner to intermediate knowledge of the patterns of those dances. This is what I'd like to change. Right now, my strong dances are salsa, rumba, east coast swing, and country two step but all the other ballroom dances (+ country & western & folk) are fair game. With a bit of review and practice, I'm sure I can quickly recapture the things I have learned over the years that aren't quite at my fingertips.

After I was widowed I started dancing as a complete beginner, about 10 years ago, and have achieved medal standard up to third star Latin and Ballroom, as well as taking a few fun exams in Club Dances, and have always been extremely pleased with the results.
I continue to take regular individual lessons with a teacher in both disciplines to continue developing my dancing skills and technique.
I started competing on the Sunday circuit 6 years ago and have entered competitions in both Ballroom and Latin, Senior Prix, Intermediate and the Over-50s classes.
I am told I have potential. I simply love dancing, learning, training and competing. I am looking forward to working hard to achieve success in competitions and would enjoy the challenge of dancing with an experienced dance partner.
My preferred discipline to compete in is Standard Ballroom, but with the right partner I would be more than happy to be a Ten dancer.

My desire is to dance more frequently on a regular basis.
Currently, I participate in a ballroom dance class on a weekly basis and attend local ballroom dances one to three times a month. Ballroom dancing and music from the 1940's big band era is my favorite. However, I am open to other types of music and dancing.
I am proficient with basic steps for fox trot, waltz, tango, and cha cha. I am seriously interested in Balboa, Argentine Tango and West Coast Swing lessons. Currently, I take a country line-dance class weekly.

Just want to meet women interested in a great dance amateur partnership I have a passion for dancing! My short term goal would be to dance and be competitive in Blackpool within 2 years! I was top gold male winner in USDC in 2006 in Orlando Fla, and top gold male winner in ten dance in Ohio Star Ball in November 2008. I performed a Paso Doble Showcase in Ischia Italy 2009 in competition.
I do Pro Am International Standard Ballroom and Latin competitions with Professional Denise Rivera and I am trained by Professional husband Martin Rivera and compete in 4 major Competitions per year. Martin and Denise Rivera trained in London with the great coaches and choreographers for four years, and won the United Kingdom Showdance title twice.
I competed the Millennium 2005 and the Florida Superstars 2005 with special recognition. In 2006 I competed the Heritage Classic at Grove Park, the Millennium 2006 in St Pete, the Volunteer State Dance in Nashville, the Florida State Dance in Sarasota 2006 with Triple Crown Award, the USDC 2006 in Hollywood Fla and the Ohio Star Ball 2006. I competed and won Top Gold Male at Ohio Star 2006. I competed and won Top Gold Male at USDC in 2008. I have trained with Joan and John Knight, Shirley Ballas and Ricardo Cocchi, Donnie Burns MBE, Markus and Karen Hilton MBE, Espen Salberg, Alan Tornsberg, Vibeke Toft, David Sycamore, Denise Weavers, Sammy Stopford, Barbara McColl, and others. I am very serious about dancing and plan becoming properly certified and teach eventually as a professional.
I have competed in the Pro Am United Country Western Dance Council events 2000 through 2005 and won the Pro Am Newcomer World Championship, then Pro Am Silver Intermediate and Open Intermediate in the World Championships in Stockholm, Sweden, on New Years 2005.
I focus entirely on international 10 dance ballroom and latin at this time and forward.
Learning ballroom dancing is a universal language and has given me a good way to understand and communicate with others. Dance has been a form of therapy and a valuable investment in my physical health and mental balance and inner spirit! Creating body motion and feeling "at will with skill" predictably is my competitive desire.
