Natalya Z is a multifaceted artist, entrepreneur, and educator.
DANCE
With a background deeply rooted in competitive Ballroom Dance, Natalya traveled the globe, competing against the best, choreographed show-stopping performances with her partner, and honed her craft under the guidance of renowned instructors for over a decade.
However - after suffering from a car accident, Natalya was no longer being able to compete at her highest potential, leading her to reconsider her identity as a competitive dancer. During this time of healing & reflection, Natalya’s artistic evolution led her to pivot out of the DanceSport industry & into the world of Heels dance, where she saw an opportunity to infuse her Ballroom expertise into this emerging style.
