Great news!

Dance Masters & Owners Florin and Natalia have won the Professional Rising Stars Championship and placed 2nd in the Open Professional Championship at Philadelphia Dancesport Championships!

This year this competition was held in Tampa, Florida. It was so good for our Dance Masters to be back on the dance floor after over 1 year break due to the pandemic. Thank you to the organizers Igor Litvinov and Chuck Danza for an excellently run competition.

Our Dance Masters would like to Thank:

  • Their shoe sponsor Freed of London (Freed of London_USA for all your support;

  • Gesteredi Sarolta (Sarolta Gesteredi) for making our vision into a reality- we love the new dress!;

  • Their best team of teachers for believing in us;

  • Natalia's personal trainer Joe of The AthLab for making her body fitter, stronger and ready to compete;

  • Their students and studio for always being there for them and supporting Dance Fire Studio through these uncertain times.

P.S. After the first day of competing and winning the championship Natalia had to be taken by an ambulance to the local hospital due to a severe acid reflux. Fortunately, after a lot of rest she was able to dance in the Open Professional Competition where she placed together with Dance Master Florin 2nd from a semifinal! This first competition was a great start for them and they can't wait to see what the future has in store for them.
