GUEST INSTRUCTOR · FESTIVAL 2026
Daric & Nastia Lion
They are among the best-known and most experienced coaching couples in Europe: Daric & Nastia!
With more than a decade of teaching together, a rare technical precision and their warm, humorous manner, the two are unmatched at getting people excited about dancing.
Their shared journey began in 2006 in Moscow, Nastia’s home city, and brought them together for good in 2012 — on and off the dance floor.
They come from Discofox, where they became vice world champions, and have long since widened their passion: today they are also among the defining faces of the European West Coast Swing scene.
Their teaching combines the best of both worlds — precision, musicality and the flowing ease of West Coast Swing. Anyone who has danced with them feels it immediately: Daric & Nastia live what they teach — pure joy in movement and music.
