Embracing the Characteristics of Smooth: 4-Video Masterclass with Tatiana Seliverstova

In American Smooth, the difference between a technician and an artist lies in the ability to embody the unique spirit of each dance. NiceDancing.com is proud to present “Embracing the Characteristics of Smooth,” a definitive 4-video series by the celebrated US National Professional Smooth Champion, Tatiana Seliverstova.

Tatiana is world-renowned for her exquisite lines, fluid transitions, and powerful floor presence. In this series, she shifts the focus from “what” to dance to “how” to dance, providing the technical and artistic keys to characterization that judges look for in top-tier competitions.

What You Will Explore in This Series:

The Essence of the Four Dances: Tatiana breaks down the distinct “DNA” of each Smooth rhythm, helping you switch character instantly between:
- Waltz: Mastering the breath, the voluminous swing, and the soft landing.
- Tango: Developing the sharp, cat-like stealth and the dramatic “staccato” power.
- Foxtrot: Achieving the quintessential “Hollywood” stroll with effortless continuity.
- Viennese Waltz: Managing the centrifugal force and the romantic, rotating flow.
Fluidity in Transitions: Learn how to move between closed ballroom hold and open artistic positions without breaking the “character” or the musical line.
Body Weight & Floor Connection: Discover Tatiana’s secrets for using the floor to create powerful dynamics while maintaining a light, ethereal appearance.
Arm Styling & Focus: Fine-tune your upper body movements and head weight to enhance the storytelling of your performance.
