​I have been dancing socially for 5 years, and now competitively, and have had the benefit of several instructors. I can say without a doubt,  Sergey has that special combination of technical skills, teaching skills and interpersonal skills. What’s probably most important is that Sergey has that unique ability to understand that dance is about YOU, not about him. And, that’s what puts him a cut above others, and make him truly a 5-star teacher!

I cannot speak highly enough of this studio and dance instructors!! Absolutely gorgeous and large studio! Such knowledgeable and talented instructors. My fiancé and I had such a great experience as they helped create a dreamy wedding dance. I can’t wait to perform it for real now!!💖

My husband and I renew our wedding vows every year.  We wanted to to do something special for our guests.  I decided that it would be fun to get a professional ballroom dancer to come and dance a tango with me (I can dance a little - I was the prima ballerina of the St Petersburg Ballet in Russia).  We then thought that the teacher could teach our guests some tango steps.

I went to several dance studios in Naples, all of whom were not very receptive or customer friendly.  I then came across Let's Dance With Me and Sergey.  He was very professional and understood what I wanted right away.  He agreed to go along with my idea and perform at my wedding vow renewal ceremony, despite being very busy, preparing for a competition.

We choreographed a great dance, which included my husband and his unique sense of humor.  Our guests loved being taught some tango steps by Sergey, who has a wonderful personal touch with everyone.

As a ballet professional, I recommend Sergey and Let’s Dance With Me to ballroom dancers of all levels.

I started taking group lessons and I felt very comfortable about the way the lessons were structured, they are fun and you will learn the right technique from the very beginning. I am now taking Private lessons, and I feel very fortunate to have met my new dance teacher Anton Chubykalo.
​
Anton is a highly skilled and trained professional that has joined Sergey's  studio and we are so lucky to have two dance teachers of such high standards. Anton is also a very caring and patient teacher and it is a true pleasure to take lessons from him. I am very excited to continue my dance journey at Let's Dance With Me Studio.

If you desire to improve your social dancing, prepare for a wedding, have competition aspirations or anything in between Sergey at Let Dance with Me is the perfect teacher. He is kind and patient but at the same time will coach you and connect with you to enable you to dance as you never thought you could, while having a great time! I am learning to dance at my individual pace while receiving expert instruction from an extraordinary  instructor.
​
Sergey is professional in his interactions with his students as well as very professional in running his business, providing fantastic customer service, all while being fun and charming! He is a rare find.

Each student has Sergey's full attention while he works with you to achieve desired goal.  And lessons are fun!  In competition, Sergey enhances the performance of his dance partner in every way including his presence on the floor.

​The very best experience learning to dance.  Fun, lighthearted yet instilling the desire to not only dance well, but enjoy every minute of the process getting there!!! A devoted teacher that inspires!!!

Chris Brandt 

I am new to the world of dance. I wanted some basic salsa lessons and found Sergey.  I had no idea how fortunate I was!  Sergey is a talented dancer and instructor, patient, fun, knowledgeable, and with gentle pressure helps you to advance beyond basic steps!

I’m hooked on dancing and look forward to every lesson and event, what wonderful exercise and social fun!

​Thank you Sergey!

Annette Van Ommeren

Dancing with Sergey is amazing experience. 4 years of lessons with Sergey improved my dancing immensely, and thanks to his guidance and support we reached new competitive goals every year. He puts his heart and soul into teaching and is fully committed to helping his students dance better than they ever believed possible. But above all, his lessons are fun, stimulating and challenging!

​Anyone, from beginner to Gold level dancers will learn to dance their best and enjoy every minute of the journey.

Lenore Rich

I took dance lessons with Sergey Vasilyev for over two years. Not only did my dancing improve substantially due to his extensive knowledge and expertise, but I had fun and found myself competing successfully.

​I highly recommend taking lessons from him. From beginner level to advanced, he excels!

Nessa Busjett

With Sergey Vasilyev my first ballroom dance teacher! It was 2008, I only had a short period with him and then he moved away.

It was my first lesson with Sergey and I thought, “this young boy is going to teach me!!?” He started teaching me every week; I had no knowledge of ballroom dancing at that time. Sergey was so passionate in his teaching and I could feel these emotions translate on to... me as we danced. Then one day I heard he left! I actually cried. This young boy was not a boy – he was a man and an incredible teacher. After he left I always asked about him, and asked people who knew Sergey to send him my regards.

Then a few days ago on July 17, I went to watch the Virginia State Dance Sport Competition in Reston. I saw this man dancing and I thought he looks like Sergey. I noted his dance number and when he finished I went to meet him. To my surprise, he gave me a big smile before I could speak. I said, “You are Sergey and you recognize me?” He said, "yes!” Then we talked for a while and I was so happy to have met him again.

Sergey, I send you my blessings and I wish you all the best in your career and in your life.

Sergey is a great guy, terrific teacher, and genuinely cares about his students. I was privileged to take lessons from him for many years, and I always looked forward to them.

We competed together, and performed in Showcases, too. He made the lessons educational, as well as entertaining, and gave 100% attention to the student he was with. He always made his students feel like they were special.
I highly recommend you take a lesson with him to experience it for yourself.

LeeAnn Braun

Sergey Vasilyev is an amazing dance instructor and very professional. His knowledge of ballroom dance at all levels is key , as is his ability to interact with his clients in an intelligent and thoughtful manner. Training, knowledge, and congeniality ...a winning combination. Highly recommended!

Joann Chin

Sergey was my instructor in competitive ballroom dancing when he taught at the Metropolitan Dance Center in Stamford, CT.

​I competed in international Latin and learned a lot from him during that time--five and a half years. He's a very gifted dancer and has excellent training and experience performing and competing. As a teacher, he is very dedicated and loved by his students and his peers in the dance community. He communicates well, and he doesn't give up.  

​He's definitely a solid person with his head on his shoulders. For me, it was great to have found an instructor that allowed me to concentrate on developing my technique, partnership, and performance, and I'm very glad to see all that we have achieved over the years while keeping the fundamentals an important aspect.

Heather Giannone

I started taking lessons with Sergey after I had gone out salsa dancing one night and realized I had NO idea what I was doing. I had taken a lot of random lessons in the past, but I really wanted to learn how to follow, improvise, and how to feel less self-conscious when dancing socially. Now when I go out dancing, I always get comments from my partners that I am so easy to lead -- that is ALL thanks to Sergey.

I have no formal dance background, but in the last 4 years Serge...y has taught me Argentine tango, cha-cha, and many other Latin dances from scratch -- enough to be able to perform on stage! Sergey is a truly talented teacher and a delight to work with. He doesn’t use a “cookie cutter” system, he really gets to know his students and their goals and adjusts his teaching style to their unique needs, which I have always appreciated.

​Do yourself a favor and take a lesson with Sergey before everyone books him up!

Julia & Set Osher

Sergei is an amazing dancer and teacher. I took lessons from him for 4 years in both Latin and Standard styles. Sergei taught me both, individually and with my husband. Since my husband and I had different abilities and strengths, it was quite challenging to teach us together, but Sergei rose to the occasion and got us to perform challenging routines.

​Thanks to Sergei, both of us grew immensely as dancers. Sergei was also amazing at defusing any tension or frustration that arose between us when struggling to push our limits. He always knew how to help us find the fun and connect with each other. Sergei is a genuinely caring and patient teacher.

Elena Elenev

Sergey has been my instructor for almost four years and I am sure that he is an exceptionally talented teacher of Ballroom and Latin Dancing. He has a great passion and tremendous desire to help his students achieve a better result. He is also very considerate and understanding, which is important for self-conscious beginners: he can easily improve your confidence and self-esteem.  

​Before I started my lessons with him, I had been taking lessons from a number of teachers who showed me steps and technique without a strict order or a system. But it was Sergey, who explained to me, how all steps could be connected together and formed into the routines; since then my progress was tremendous. He is, undoubtedly, a very knowledgeable young man, and is always willing to share his knowledge and help his students achieve their goals. I wish him best of luck in his new undertaking and am sure that Let’s Dance With Me has bright future.

We are looking forward to meeting you!​​
