Just a man looking to dance and have a good time.I am excellent at breaking down steps and working to improve dancers,adding that extra touch to stand out on the dance floor. Gold and gold bar teacher at major studio in southern California.

Over the years created a system of teaching the major ballroom dances by interrelating steps of dances to make easy learning.Then adding personal style to ones dancing.Still work with small groups,but mostly retired from full time teaching.I have fun dancing and meeting people.Some travel,getting back to going to dance events.I will help judge sometimes but not as much anymore.I have never stopped learning new techniques and truly believe dancing keeps you young and healthy.

I love to follow a man’s lead wherever he takes me and I enjoy all the dances and various styles. I like to go out social dancing for exercise and fun.

I danced a bit of hip hop growing up and was always surrounded by dancers. But it wasnt till 5 years ago that a friend showed me a basic rumba step and i was hooked i have been dancing on and off since then.

I had the privilege of performing this year and loved it. My goal in the next 2 years is to get paid to perform on stage and for that i need to practice. I love fusion partner dance and im particularly drawn to to micro movements of kisomba and the footwork of salsa. Of this list i am most experienced in bachata salsa and kisomba. I would love to set a goal with you and work towards it

Standard and latin, competitive

10-dancer of about 14 years. Recently moved to the Austin (TX) area from New York City. Looking to get back into the competitive dance scene. My recent trainers are Ina Jeliazkova, Olga Tsikalyuk, Frantseska Yordanova, to name a few.

I love American Smooth and I love Latin. Happy to dance one, or the other, or both.

I am a 3 Time US National Senior 1 and Senior 2 Latin Champion looking for ambitious, committed lead. I’ve enjoyed being in Top 20 in Senior Latin at Blackpool, several international and world championships. I have loved every moment of it.

My regular coaches have been Nick and Viktoria, Sabrina Manzi, Tykon and Yana, Max Sinitsa, Shirley Ballas, Goran Nordin, Evgeny Nazarov, Nikolay Voronovich, and Anna Kovalova, and have studied with many more of the greats. I love the ballroom life - the music, the beauty, the travel and most importantly, the dances!

Hx of classical ballet, Russian & Cecchetti. On1 salsa instruction, +10 experience - learned in N. CA, first from a Colombian instruction, some Cuban instruction. Minor experience in bachata, cha cha, rumba, meringue, cumbia. I live in Tacoma.

Originally, I learned single time swing in high school 25 years ago, salsa during College 20 years ago, and did some ballroom in the mid 2000s. Recently got back into it in 2023. In a typical week I'll have 2-3 hours of group lessons, with one or two social dances for about 1.5 hours each. Would love to practice once a week for a couple hours to go over all the dances and various moves, though I can be flexible on that. My goal is to have fun, make sure my follows have fun, and be competent on the dance floor.

While I am up for learning routines for performances, at the moment do not have the time or interest in competing.

I learn from a Fred Astaire Instructor in American Smooth & American Rhythm. I'm open to doing some international lessons, but primarily dance and practice American Smooth & Rhythm. Below is a quick description of my knowledge in each dance style:

Ballroom Swing / Single Time Swing / Single Time Jive: several steps

Bolero: most steps

Cha-Cha: all Bronze steps

Country Two Step: the first few steps

Disco Waltz: most bronze steps and a silver step

Foxtrot: Know the first 4-5 bronze steps

Latin Hustle: all bronze steps and some silver steps

Night Club Two step: Basic step, maybe a couple more

Rumba: all bronze steps

Samba: first few bronze steps

Tango: all bronze steps, some knowledge of silver steps

Viennese waltz: reverse turns, natural turns, and change/bridge steps.

Waltz: all bronze steps, beginning to learn silver

West Coast Swing: Knowledge of a few basic steps.

I teach Casino Rueda and have danced it 15 years.I can also dance LA style as a follow. I am an energetic East Coast and Swing dancer and a good follow. I have dance Tango for about 14 years and am passionate about it. I have been dancing Cajun and Zydeco for 20 years and can lead and follow. I am a basic Bachata dancer and can follow it well.

Been practicing Latin dances for a little over a year and would like to move from beginner to intermediate/ advanced.

I've been dancing for 21 years and I love it. I always like the challenge of becoming better and so I'm always open to further professional tuition. Although my lifestyle doesn't lend itself to competing on a serious level, I have competed in national championships here in Ireland with high placing on the podium :-)

Whilst my home town is Sligo in the northwest of Ireland, I travel quite a bit.

This SEPTEMBER I've PLANNED a VISIT to the TOWER BALLROOM in BLACKPOOL. I'd love to meet a dancer who'd like to JOIN ME THERE!

I'm also interested in finding dance partners for other social events in the UK, Spain and Perth WA (as I visit there quite often).

I would love to meet dance partners to practice/dance/socialise with. I have a GOSH and a good outlook on life. I just want to keep on enjoying my dancing as I travel and have fun.

Started Oct 24. Using my free time to dance (at least 3 times a week). Focus is on international Latin. Had my first comp as student-student in Jun 26.

I have been dancing ballroom and latin on and off for about 20 years but did not have a regular partner until 2019 and our progress was interrupted by covid restrictions. Unfortunately a foot injury now means my partner can no longer dance. I would say I am a proficient social dancer in ballroom and latin. I have been dancing modern jive for about twenty years and I am very good at it but go regularly to the same venue so do not need a partner for this but am very willing to int0rduce a potential partner.
