Qualified with both the ISTD and the IDTA, Sergio has extensive experience
working with people from all backgrounds. In 2008 he decided to move to the UK
to pursue his competitive career and become a full-time dance professional and
teacher. His focus is on great technique, emotional connection with the music
and of course have fun along the way. Sergio is currently in California, USA
studying American Smooth and American Rhythm and will occasionally visit the
studio for some coaching.Together they competed not only in Same-Sex events but
were also the first and only all-male couple to participate in Professional
events, challenging the notion that a couple needs to be consistent by a male
and a female. As they explored the dynamics of leading and following, it felt
only right to move on to the Professional field together, where they had
competed for so many years. After all, if our society has developed to accept
all sorts of partnerships why should in dancing be any different? They have
enjoyed competing together at the most prestigious events in the UK, including
the British Open that every year summons thousands of dancers across the world.
