The Story

Born to move.
Here to transform.

I began dancing in Kharkiv, Ukraine at the age of five. I never imagined that dance would one day carry me across continents, into elite competitions, and onto the stages of America's most-watched television — yet somehow, every step led exactly there.

After competing as a Finalist on So You Think You Can Dance Season 8 on Ukrainian national television, I took my artistry to America — placing as a Top 8 Finalist on So You Think You Can Dance Season 18 on FOX, and performing as a featured Troupe member on Dancing with the Stars Season 33 on ABC. I now bring that television-caliber precision to private, one-on-one instruction in Manhattan.

"Dance is not about steps — it is a ritual through which you build confidence, dissolve judgment, and discover who you are beneath the noise. Master the mind expressed through your body, and everything else follows."

— Roman Nevinchanyi

What You'll Master

Six pillars of
elite movement.

Every session is custom-built around your body, your goals, and your timeline. No cookie-cutter choreography, no group pretending — only what moves you forward.

1 / 6

N^o 01

Latin Ballroom

Cha-cha, samba, rumba, paso doble, jive — the full spectrum with authentic styling, musicality, and fire.

N^o 02

Stage Presence

Transform from a person who dances into a performer who commands a room — the difference is the whole thing.

N^o 03

Body Mechanics

Posture, core alignment, weight transfer — the invisible architecture that separates good dancers from unforgettable ones.

N^o 04

Partner Work

Lead and follow, connection, musicality — chemistry on the floor is a learnable, teachable, transferable skill.

N^o 05

Choreography

Custom routines for weddings, performances, competitions, film — built specifically for your body and moment.

N^o 06

Confidence & Presence

The psychological transformation — how elite performers carry themselves into every room, not just onto every stage.

Why Roman

The difference
you feel immediately.

Television-tested technique

Everything I teach has been proven under national broadcast pressure — not just studio theory.

Most students leave the very first lesson able to do something they couldn't do walking in.

Bilingual coaching (EN / UA)

Native Ukrainian, fluent English — I can switch seamlessly for students who prefer it.

My Approach

Four principles that
define every session.

The philosophy behind results that last beyond the studio.

Principle 01I

The body learns through feeling, not instruction.

Technique is the foundation — and it matters deeply. But technique alone is hollow without the feeling that drives it. I create the conditions where your body discovers movement from the inside out. When sensation leads and structure follows, it becomes permanent — wired into muscle memory, not memorized like a sequence.

Principle 02II

Confidence is a physical skill — we train it directly.

Stage presence isn't a personality trait you either have or don't. It's a set of postures, breath patterns, and spatial habits — all trainable. And they follow you off the floor: into rooms, speeches, relationships, pressure.

Principle 03III

Slow is fast. Precision before speed, always.

Twenty-four years on competitive stages taught me: rushing builds bad habits at scale. We go slow. We go deep. We make the foundation unbreakable — and speed arrives on its own.

Principle 04IV

You are not a student. You are an original instrument.

There is no fixed curriculum here. Your body, personality, and goals shape every session from the ground up. I have judged hundreds of dancers — I know exactly what separates good from unforgettable.

5.0 ★★★★★

Alexandra M.

★★★★★

"I originally just wanted to survive my wedding dance, but Roman gave me the kind of confidence that lasts a lifetime."

James P.

★★★★★

"Just six weeks in and I've noticed a huge shift. I don't just move better on the dance floor — I walk differently everywhere else, too. Best decision I've made."

Marcus S.

★★★★★

"Instead of just teaching me routines, Roman taught me how to actually own my movements. He knows exactly how to get you to that next level."

Sarah H.

★★★★★

"Roman is an incredible teacher who really listens and brings out the best in you, even in just a single class. I'll definitely be back for more. Highly recommend!"

Diana K.

★★★★★

"Roman helped me break out of my shell and stop being afraid to take up space. That new confidence has honestly spilled over into every part of my life. Thank you!"

Tyler R.

★★★★★

The Journey

Dance, art &
the pursuit of mastery.

Young Roman representing Ukraine at competition

Chapter 01

Kharkiv, Ukraine · 2001 – 2010

The unlikely beginning.

I didn't want to dance. But somewhere between the first steps and the first stage, something shifted. Dance gave me confidence, coordination, and a sense of self I hadn't found anywhere else — and that was enough to keep going.

Chapter 02

Kyiv, Ukraine · 2011 – 2017

The passion ignites.

Books opened my mind. College gave me the space to explore my talent. Teachers, mentors, and the people who believed in me shaped who I became. Ukraine's demanding standard built my character — a hard school I will always be grateful for. SYTYCD Ukraine finalist. Multi-time finalist of prestigious Latin ballroom competitions.

Chapter 03

Los Angeles & New York · 2017 – Now

How it's going.

Three auditions. SYTYCD Season 18 Top 8. California United States Champion. DWTS Season 33 troupe member. Every setback became fuel — and every stage, a step forward. Now based in Manhattan, I pass on everything this journey has taught me. And there is still so much more ahead.

Questions

Everything
you'd want to ask.

Still curious? Write directly — I answer personally within a day.

Reach out →

Do I need any prior experience to begin?

Not at all. Roughly half of my students arrive as complete beginners. Every session is built around where you actually are — not where you're expected to be.

Where do sessions take place?

Manhattan — across a curated set of private studios. For VIP students, I can arrange sessions at your home, hotel, or venue.

How quickly will I see progress?

Most students leave their very first session able to do something they couldn't do walking in. Real transformation typically compounds in weeks 3–6.

Can I book a session for a wedding or event?

Absolutely. I regularly choreograph first dances, reception showcases, and performance pieces. The Mastery and VIP tiers are designed for exactly this.

Is there a cancellation policy?

Sessions can be rescheduled up to 24 hours in advance at no cost. Packages are fully honored — time is on your side.

Do you work with couples?

Yes — couples coaching is one of my specialties. Rates are identical; the session structure is adapted for partnered work.
