Ballroom Dancing Lessons with Pavlo Barsuk

I can’t say enough good things about Pasha as a ballroom dance teacher. I had hit a plateau in my competitive ballroom career, and was ranking the same for way too long, not even making finals. I started getting coaching with Pasha, and after 6 months I won a National Champion title and made the World finals. He demonstrates and explains technique so clearly, and in a unique way that makes him stand out. He takes such a personal investment in each student and is so committed to helping you be your absolute best. He also adjusts his approach based on your goals, whether social or competitive. I am so grateful to have met Pasha and to have had him as a coach during my ballroom career. I literally would not have gotten as good as I got or have the awards I’ve won without him.

I worked with Pavlo for about a year and learned so much! I had done American style before but not International. He was extremely flexible with his schedule and was always easy to get in contact with. He’s an amazing dancer, coach, and an overall positive person to be around. Pavlo challenged me and made me the best dancer I could be! Thanks so much, highly recommended!!!

Training with Pavlo barsuk is the best thing that happened to my dancing. He has a well rounded knowledge of dance and is very dedicated to all his students. I would recommend him to anyone with an interest in dancing.

Pasha is an incredible dane instructor. I love his technique boot camps. He really pushes you to become better and you can see the results. Not to mention his classes are always a blast! I learned a lot from Pasha and would recommend him for anyone who is looking to dance ballroom!

Pavlo (Pasha) is a great dance instructor! I have been taking dance lessons for the past five years from various instructors and Pasha is one of the best! He has a strong work ethic and cares deeply about his students. He is committed to teaching his students to understand and master proper technique and body mechanics. Pasha has a positive can do attitude and he makes you feel encouraged and confident. Pasha himself is a top professional dancer and has achieved top level success during his career. Dancing with Pasha is a privilege but most of all it is fun! I highly recommend Pasha Barsuk! He is the BEST!

Pavlo, also known as Pasha, is an amazing teacher. I recommend him for 3 reasons. First, his technique is impeccable and he knows how to break it down so you can emulate him. Second, he has a great passion for what he does and his lessons are always high energy in a good way. Finally, he knows when to push you a little harder to get other details in the choreography. If you are looking to compete, he’s your man!

Pasha is a great dance teacher and coach! Have been taking lessons with him for two years. If you want fun choreography and good technique from a seasoned professional, definitely try private lessons with him. If you’re a competitive amateur like me, he’ll push you and take your dancing further than you ever thought possible. If you’re a beginner, he’ll ease you into ballroom dancing and make it fun. (my wife is a beginner and she enjoyed our lessons with him)
He has created some really fun and crisp choreography for me and my partner. It definitely feels tailored to my physical abilities and to my personality. Not too overwhelming, but not too simple, and really capturing the character of each dance.
The technical coaching has been really good as well. I’ve grown a lot as a dancer under his guidance.
Overall, two thumbs up and a big «thank you.»
He’s also great for kids. I see him teach little ones. Somehow he manages to keep them paying attention and working diligently through the lessons. And it’s great to see the same kids doing dance competitions and seeing them grow. They’ll be fearsome competitors by the time they grow up. Recommend for parents who want their kids to learn this beautiful sport.

Great workshop technique classes. Wish I were here longer to enjoy them. Highly recommended. Pasha and Ashley will improve anyone’s Latin technique quickly.

Pasha is a super talented dancer and also a wonderful teacher! He is also an excellent choreographer and is great at explaining the techniques of the dances. In addition, he is very patient and does a great job in helping me improve my dance skills. I really enjoy his group lessons and would definitely recommend taking group/​private lessons with Pasha.
