ABOUT ATD
BEYOND THE DANCE FLOOR
ATD Dance Studio was created from a love of dance, music and the experience of sharing it with other people.
Â
We believe dancing is more than learning steps. It’s about understanding your body, connecting with your partner, feeling the music, becoming more comfortable expressing yourself and just having fun.
Â
Whether you’re taking your first steps or have been dancing for years, our aim is simple — to help you discover more of what you can do through dance.

TOMEKÂ
Tomek brings a lifetime of rhythm, movement, and performance into every class. From the vibrant dance scene of Poland to training with world-class coaches in Australia, his journey has shaped a teaching style that’s as unique as his dance style.
With a background that spans breakdance, musical theatre, ballroom, Tango, Salsa and many other styles - His dance is instantly recognizable for its particular groove and fluidity, and it’s something he loves passing on to his students.
Over the years, Tomek trained with legends including ten-time World Salsa Champion Oliver Pineda, Alex Bryan, and many more. He absorbed the essence of the Palladium era — when salsa was alive, raw, and evolving with the music itself. This blend of structured precision and musical freedom makes his classes both technically solid and full of heart.
What truly sets Tomeks teaching apart is his ability to accelerate growth. Whether you’re stepping onto the dancefloor for the very first time or reaching for the next level, he knows how to guide you clearly, push you just enough, and keep the joy alive in the process.
In his classes, you don’t just learn moves — you discover confidence, connection, and the freedom to express yourself through dance. His mix of old-school authenticity and modern teaching methods ensures you’ll always feel challenged, inspired, and moving forward.
ALEX
Alex’s journey with dance began in her childhood, where ballroom and Latin American styles first taught her the beauty of precision and performance. From there, her path moved through Belarusian folk dance, and later the vibrant world of Salsa, Tango and other social styles in Poland — each style unlocking a new way to move, feel, and connect.
Teaching came to her naturally. Her deep curiosity for people and movement meant she didn’t just learn steps — she learned how to teach them.
Over the years, she has worked with dancers of every level, from complete beginners to seasoned performers, guiding each with clarity, patience, and a spark of joy that makes learning uplifting and fun.
Her teaching blends technique and structure with freedom of expression. You’ll gain the foundations and technique that build confidence, while also being encouraged to find your style, your own way of expressing the music.
For Alex, the goal is simple: to open the door for anyone to dance with ease, connection, and joy — whether it’s creating a graceful wedding dance, spinning confidently on the social floor, or simply finding happiness moving to music at home.
