Bio:

Dancing has always been a large part of his life and he enjoys competing nationally and internationally. Misha competed with his partner Natasha Kazheunikava in International Ballroom, and together they were winners and finalists of major United States competitions.

Misha teaches International Ballroom & Latin, American Smooth & Rhythm, and is available for private lessons, group classes, showcases, wedding dance lessons, and mixed-proficiency competitions.
