About Us
We - Todd & Krissy Biernacki - are committed to providing high quality dance classes in a playful atmosphere. We began taking dance classes in preparation for our wedding back in 1993! Since then, dancing has taken us around the world, teaching, performing, and studying. We currently teach private lessons & workshops in Portland and in the Columbia River Gorge region (Hood River/White Salmon). In our spare time we are raising (chasing) our 2 little ones, Todd is building our new home and studio, and Krissy helps tend to the local farmers' market and local gardens.
We do our best to bring the authentic rhythms and styling from all of our studies to our students. We are dynamic teachers and dancers, and we find it deeply satisfying to share our love of the dance and music through our classes.
We have studied Swing and Salsa from the best. The most influential Hoppers in our lives are Frankie Manning, Steven Mitchell, Ewa "W" Staremo & Lennart Westerlund (at left), David Dalmo, Sing Lim, and Andrew Vassilou. Our Salsa influences are Cuban, our teachers being "Taty" Pestana, Lazaro "More" Vazquez, Viky Laborde, and the Danza Libre dance troupe.
