I am an accomplished professional Ballroom and Latin dancer, as well as a certified dance instructor. I began dancing at the age of 7 in Ukraine, and for the past 20 years, I have been teaching and performing with Fred Astaire Dance Studios. I am passionate about both dancing and sharing my knowledge with students of all ages.<\/p>\n
My teaching style is fun, approachable, and structured, following both International and American dance syllabi for beginners, social dancers, advanced students, and competitors. I specialize in helping brand-new students grow into confident social or competitive dancers, and I enjoy guiding more experienced dancers to refine their skills and reach the next level.<\/p>\n
I truly believe that anyone can learn to dance! It simply takes the desire to try and a great teacher to guide the way.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":8127,"template":"","class_list":["post-8125","team_member","type-team_member","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fredastaire.com\/syosset\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/team_member\/8125","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fredastaire.com\/syosset\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/team_member"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fredastaire.com\/syosset\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/team_member"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.fredastaire.com\/syosset\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/team_member\/8125\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fredastaire.com\/syosset\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/8127"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fredastaire.com\/syosset\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=8125"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
