I have been taking lessons from Oleg for close to a decade
now. Oleg has a good balance of patience for those times
when my mind and body seem to be having a disconnect, as
well as high standards for excellence and expectations of
improvement for all of his students. Oleg is skillful in the use of
analogy to explain dancing principles, as well as hilarious in
highlighting the humor of a mistake taken to an extreme.

Oleg and Tatiana have excellent professionalism and boundaries. Oleg honors one's
financial/budgetary concerns, and I have never felt any pressure to do more
competitions, lessons or competition heats than I felt were financially responsible,
which is not true of all studios or teachers. Additionally, Oleg and Tatiana's students
form a family at competitions, cheering one another on, which adds greatly to the
experience of competition.

I plan to keep dancing, and to take lessons from Oleg, for the foreseeable future.
Ballroom dancing is enjoying a renaissance in interest right now, and Oleg is an
excellent instructor to either get you started, or to take you to new levels of dancing.

Oleg and Tatiana have everything I look for in a teacher: a beautiful, professional style, exceptional teaching ability and...fun! They inspire me, my learning has accelerated and I always enjoy the classes.

I have been taking a lesson from Oleg and Tatiana from
middle of 2004. I decided to do so after I saw their
super performance several times in major competitions.

I started from “Single Lesson” because I did not have a
partner at the time. During the period of the partner
search, I could feel that my knowledge of dancing was
accurately improving by taking their lessons.

After several try outs, on late 2005, I started taking a
pair lesson with a lady who was quite talented but had
no experience in International Standard. Under the
supervision of Oleg and Tatiana, we started competing
on 2006. We started from Novice/Pre-Championship.
Very surprisingly, we started wining Novice on 2006.
On 2007 and 2008, we won Pre-Championship in some
competitions. Even if we did not win 1st place, we were
constantly one of finalists. On 2008, we started
competing Open Championship category.

I cannot help expressing my appreciation to Oleg and Tatiana for our accomplishment.
I recommend Oleg and Tatiana to anyone who wants to dance in beautiful manner.

My first lesson with Oleg and Tatiana was in 2004 in their international standard class
in the old Ballroom is Back studio in Huntington Beach. I had taken lessons from various
other teachers and while I learned a lot from each teacher, I started taking Oleg and
Tatiana’s class because I found that each instructor offers unique help to the student.
I was particularly pleased by the fact that both Oleg and Tatiana taught the classes
back then.

I started my private lessons with them in 2005, when they offered lessons at the
Regency Ballroom in Lomita. Since I live in Redondo Beach, lessons in Lomita are very
convenient for me. My regular lessons are with Tatiana, who is generally very pleasant,
but who can also be demanding in trying to get the most from me in my dancing. She
is very observant in indentifying errors and weaknesses in my dancing and flexible in
trying more than one way to get me to correct my errors and generate more strength
in my dancing. I occasionally take a lesson from Oleg, whose teaching style differs from
that of Tatiana. Oleg focuses on proper technique and expects disciplined approaches
from the student to execute proper technique.

I am pleased by the quality of instruction that I have received from both Oleg and
Tatiana, but appreciate perhaps even more their encouragement as my wife Chi and
I struggle through lessons and amateur competitions.
