In Maria’s words, their partnership is:
"…a big gift from God. That is what I realize only now! We don’t need to talk a lot, we understand each other from inside".
Their strong and toned bodies tell what hard workers they are, spending hours and hours in the dance studio. In addition to their long hours on the dance floor, they cross train with fitness, yoga, stretching and ballet classes.
They are determined in the achievement of their Ballroom Dance goals and strive for elegance, to be truly natural with their passion and in the freedom of their dancing. These ideals make their dancing come alive, as they share their positive strong energy with the audience through the beautiful moments in each Ballroom Dance.
"We love to dance so much that we can’t live without it.
We are a great team and always care about each other." – Maria
