We had the good fortune of connecting with Ekaterina Kuznetsova and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Ekaterina, we’d love to hear more about how you thought about starting your own business?

After all, I lived for dance, opening my own dance studio seemed like such a fun adventure at the time. I loved taking class of my own. I loved to teach and always had great feedback and retention in my classes. I was a talented choreographer, and I had a great relationship with my existing dance families.
Besides that, I always dreamed to share my passion for the dance with regular people, help them realize their dancing goals in a friendly and inspirational atmosphere. Whether you are looking for a new hobby or way to connect with your partner, want to improve your social life, or are taking your dancing skills to the next level.

We have variety different fan places. But my most favorite are always those where you can dance and have fun.
