Hi, we are Artem and Oleksandra the founders of Royal Dance Academy
About Royal Dance Academy
Where Passion Meets Legacy
At Royal Dance Academy, dance is more than movement — it’s a legacy. Founded by a Ukrainian family of ballroom dance teachers spanning generations, our academy is built on tradition, excellence, and deep love for the art of dance.
Who We Are
We are the proud founders of three dance studios — in Ukraine, Florida, and Georgia — and we’ve trained hundreds of dancers across the world. As a family of professional coaches, we’ve developed national and international champions, many of whom have gone on to become award-winning performers and instructors themselves.
Our coaches hold top-level certifications and are recognized for their outstanding achievements in competitive dance coaching. We take pride in blending European technique with an American approach to creativity, energy, and fun.
What We Believe
Our mission is to help every child and adult unlock their full potential through dance — gaining not only technical skills, but also confidence, discipline, and joy. At Royal Dance Academy, students become part of a supportive dance family where they’re seen, guided, and celebrated.
Our Students Win — On and Off the Dance Floor
From first steps to international competitions, our dancers consistently reach podiums and personal breakthroughs. Whether you’re dancing for fun, growth, or gold medals — we’re here to help you shine.
For over a decade, our original studio in Ukraine trained multiple generations of champions.
With a legacy of excellence, discipline, and care, this is where our story began — and where dozens of medalists took their first steps on the dance floor.
