Since 1985, this dynamic pair has contributed enormously to the tremendous resurgence of partner dancing in Manhattan and across the nation.Renown for their work in films, Paul and Eleny have extensive film experience both as performers and choreographers. In the early 1990s, they came to national attention when they trained Academy Award winner Al Pacino for his sizzling tango scene in the hit movie, Scent of a Woman.
DanceSport’s keys to success from the beginning have included offering a wide variety of dance styles and being pioneers in creating opportunities for people to utilize their skills on the dance floor through practice and city-wide events. As they began to attract other top teachers and performers, their mission was truly realized - to have the most comprehensive programs available in all areas of social and competitive dancing.
Thanks to the expertise available at the studio, DanceSport has been able to successfully expand the scope of its services to both the student population and the community of social and competitive dancers. Today, the extensive repertoire at DanceSport also includes show performances, corporate events, dance vacations, wedding services and college and children’s dance programs.

Eleny is the first American to place in the top six ranked couples of the world’s most respected competitions, the Closed British and Open British.
