D&S Ballroom Dance

What dancers say

• “Sarina and Dima are a beautiful couple both on and off the dance floor. They are professional and carry themselves with the utmost poise. I’ve had the pleasure of watching them compete in professional ballroom dance (they are simply amazing!), it is clear to anyone watching that they love what they do as dancing is their passion. My fiancé and I have taken a group dance lesson with them that was so much fun, the group was at all different levels and Dima and Sarina made everyone feel comfortable while we did our best to learn each step. They are patient and so helpful. Last but not least, my fiancé and I will be taking more dance lessons from them - this time, one on one! It will be for our first dance at our wedding and I can’t imagine learning our dance from anyone else!”

• “Dima and Sarina are truly the best ballroom/latin dance teachers and mentors you could ever ask for! Ever since I walked in for my first lesson with them, they not only gave me new corrections and information about my dancing I’d never heard before, but they treated me with upmost care and welcomed me into their dance family. They are incredibly knowledgeable on their craft as they are current competing latin dance professionals. They will do everything they can to help you reach you reach your dance goals, whether you have social, competitive, or professional aspirations; they are amazing with all ages and levels. Unlike some other teachers, do not BS you on anything and will make sure you receive the right information to become a better dancer. Before I started with them, I always had dreams of competing in dancesport, but was not sure how soon this would be possible. With the help of D&S, I was able to compete after just a few months of training, and have gone on to win numerous scholarship and championship awards in Pro/Am dancing with Dima! I highly recommend D&S to ANYONE wanting to learn the ways of ballroom dance and progress quickly!”

• “Sarina and Dima have been truly amazing to work with from our very first phone call to lessons in both Florida and NYC! My husband and I started with them to feel more comfortable dancing at our daughter's wedding. When we learned they also had a studio in NYC, Sarina offered to help my husband with the father/daughter dance and then also provide instruction to our daughter which was such a great help to us and so much fun! Prior to our first lesson, my husband was reluctant to take dance lessons, but after meeting Sarina and Dima, we both felt so much more comfortable. They are very patient and describe what they teach in very understandable ways while also working to be sure our technique is correct. We regret not starting earlier but plan to continue our lessons to get even more comfortable. Sarina and Dima are true professionals and such incredible dancers while also enjoying teaching the very basics to amateurs like my husband and me. We are so glad we found them and started our lessons with them!”
