- How did you get started doing this type of work?
My journey into the world of dance began in the Tatarstan Republic of Russia when I was just six years old. Dancing alongside my talented sister, Eugenia Spotar, I initially trained in Ballet, Russian Folklore, and International Ballroom. This early exposure to diverse dance forms ignited a passion that only grew stronger with time. As I continued to develop my skills, I began competing both nationally and internationally, which provided invaluable experience and deepened my love for dance. The thrill of competition and the joy of performing on different stages around the world were incredible motivators for me. Realizing how much joy and fulfillment dance brought into my life, I felt a strong desire to share this with others. Teaching became a natural progression, allowing me to combine my love for dance with my passion for helping others achieve their creative and artistic goals. Becoming a dance instructor has been a rewarding way to make a positive impact on people's lives, fostering a love for dance and the many benefits it brings.
