The Story
Discovered swing dance in Saint Petersburg, Russia. Dasha started dancing four to five times a week from day one and competing almost immediately.
Began teaching Lindy Hop. Simultaneously launched her first event work: organizing local swing socials across Saint Petersburg.
Started teaching Collegiate Shag. Co-organized Fast Pete — a dedicated balboa & shag event in Saint Petersburg — bringing niche styles to a wider audience.
Started teaching Balboa. Relocated to Asia, beginning an era of intensive teaching and organizing across the continent. Bangkok became home base.
Co-organized Diga Diga Doo, a swing dance event in Bangkok that brought the local and international community together.
Launched Breezy Balboa from scratch — a brand new balboa camp in Thailand, built entirely from the ground up.
Launched Bangkok Tap Fest, bringing tap dance and swing culture together in a first-of-its-kind event in Bangkok.
Together with Andreas Olsson and Cupcake launched Breezy Swing — a new multi-style swing event in Hua Hin, Thailand, covering Lindy Hop, Solo Jazz, Balboa, Shag and more.
Based in Bangkok, growing the local swing scene. Collaborated with Dax Hock and Juan Villafane during their Bangkok residencies. Taught across fourteen cities in Asia.
