Meet the Business Owner: Hlib O.
Hi! I’m Hlib Obraztsov — a professional ballroom dancer and instructor with over 20 years of experience. I’m originally from Ukraine, where I earned my Master’s Degree in Choreography & Dance from the Kyiv National University of Culture and Arts.
Throughout my career, I’ve been a multi-time Ukrainian Ballroom Champion, a multi-time Fred Astaire National Finalist, as well as a Regional and Inter-Regional champion across the U.S. Competing and performing around the world has shaped who I am — and now I’m proud to bring that knowledge and passion to the students here at Fred Astaire Dance Studio in Port Jefferson.
I specialize in Ballroom, Latin, Social Dances, Wedding Choreography, American Rhythm, and American Smooth. Whether you’re stepping onto the floor for the very first time or working toward the spotlight, I’m here to guide you with support, excitement, and a smile.
I truly love to spark and enrich people’s lives through the positive, transforming power of dance!
