Three Times World Champion

“I had spent most of my childhood in dance halls and it still brings a smile to my face. Zoran and Tatsiana were a part of my dance journey from the very beginning and are really like second parents to me. We went together through ups and downs and I believe I wouldn’t be able to achieve all the important results without their support, guidance and determination. Diamant raises their dancers with a winning mentality and as a result their dance couples are not only achieving great results at the national level but are also recognized worldwide as hardworking and of high quality.”
