I was born in Kyiv, Ukraine. I started my ballroom dance career at 4 years old and have been rapidly improving since that early age. I turned professional when I was 17 and achieved some great results, such as becoming Ukrainian National Champion, European Championship finalist, Blackpool Dance Festival finalist, and International Championship winner.
I also earned a Bachelor’s degree in Physical Education and Dancesport at National University of Physical Education and Sport of Ukraine.
At the age of 20, I moved to the United States of America to dance with my then future husband, Iaroslav.
In our first year together, Iaroslav and I became Blackpool Dance Festival Professional Rising Stars Runners up and finalists of all major events in the US. Since then, we have become finalists and winners of many prestigious events in the USA and worldwide.
In 2021 we have become United States National Professional International Standard Champions, earning one of the most important titles in our career. We have also become World Vice-Champions in World Standard Show dance Championship the same year and we are currently ranked top 5 in WDC World Ranking.
Today, we live in Pasadena, California, where we actively train and teach. We are both certified Dance Vision instructors and Ambassadors. Both of us love sharing our knowledge and educating dancers using the Prism Method - our own methodology of teaching and learning ballroom dancing. It allows our students across the country to achieve the highest results on and off the competition floor.
Iaroslav and I are executive producers and directors of ballroom dance show that is coming on stage very soon.
