DANCE TEACHER - CHOREOGRAPHER - PERFORMANCE AND BUSINESSMAN
I started dancing intensively in 1996 , among the first dances, which I found love for, belonged Brazilian Funk, Samba de Gafiera, Bolero, and the swinging Foxtrot. After many dance performances and experiences, I decided to expand my repertoire also with salsa and bachata.
I had an opportunity to move to the Czech Republic and introduce Brazilian culture here in Prague in 2005. Together with Sofie Toris we opened the first-ever Brazilian dance studio and began teaching Zouk, Samba de Gafiera, carnival samba, salsa, Bolero, Tango and many other dynamics and passionate Brazilian dances.
Ever since 2010, I organize the Prague Zouk Congress that is attended by more and more fans of Brazilian culture from around the world annually. Each year, more than 600 dance enthusiasts dedicate the whole week to zouk and samba.
I opened a new dance studio, which was attended by more than 150 returning students in 2012. To maintain the highest quality, I employed three dance assistants.
In addition to teaching in my own studio, I travel to affiliated dance congresses around the world as a lecturer and performer. I visit approx 14 world dance congresses each year.
I was given an opportunity to participate in a worldwide tour Brazouka at the beginning of 2014. I finished the tour in December 2014.
