We are Mikhail Kolosov and Elina Semka, a professional dance couple representing Fred Astaire.

We were both born in Russia and moved to the USA at the beginning of 2023.

Our dance journeys started when we were children. Our parents brought us to dance studios against our will :)

Before fully focusing on a dance career, Mikhail was planning to become a psychologist while studying at university, and Elina completed several vocal courses and won three singing competitions.

We dance International Latin Style because self-expression, communication with each other, and, of course, our love for music are all very important to us.

Our partnership was formed 7 years ago, completely by accident, and it’s the best accident of our lives!

Currently, we work and represent FADS Doylestown, and our coaches are Eugene Katsevman and Maria Manusova.

During our partnership, we have been finalists and prize winners of WDSF competitions , finalists and prize winners of American competitions, and bronze medalists of the USDS Pro Rising Stars Latin 2024.

We love and value what we do and aim to fully realize our potential in it.
