I love dancing. I have been dancing since age 14 in Kluczbork in Poland. At age 19, I moved to Wroclaw to study different types of dance including modern ballroom, latin, hip-hop, jazz, folk and ballet. I was trained by the Polish ballroom and latin champion Arkadiusz Pawlovic. For fourteen years, I competed at major dance competitions in modern ballroom and latin in Poland and also abroad, representing my country.
In 2005, I set up my own dance school "Let's Dance" in Wroclaw where my students were trained to compete and perform in addition to learning social dancing. I came to London in 2008 to further my dance career. I have been taking lessons with top British ballroom professionals including Christopher Hawkins, Joanne Bolton and Craigh Shaw. I have been teaching ballroom and latin dancing at different levels in various institutions in Mayfair, Kensington, Canary Wharf, Nottinghill, Richmond, and New Eltham. "Let's Dance" will be starting a ballroom and latin class for beginners and improvers in Sidcup in Kent in August 2009, in Wanstead and Bow in September 2009.
I teach and prepare wedding couples for their "first dance" at weddings. My other dance experience includes organising and performing at the February Fantasy Ball 2008 at the Royal Overseas League in Mayfair, and performing and teaching in Spain in May-June 2009. I have a holistic approach to dancing. I wish to provide my students/clients an all-round experience of dancing. I therefore organize opportunities for my students to perform, take examinations and compete if they so wish. I also design and produce bespoke dance dresses for ladies to enhance their enjoyment of their dance experience.
