Meet Your Instructor
Aga Bohun
“With over 25 years of experience teaching movement, communication, and embodiment, Aga creates a space where beginners feel instantly at ease.
From international guests to influencers and cultural campaigns, she is known for making elegance accessible – one step at a time.
“We thoroughly enjoyed the Viennese waltz workshop led by Aga and her assistant Nico! Aga’s teaching philosophy and style makes learning Viennese waltz very accessible for anyone, regardless of one’s level of prior ballroom experience. Aga carefully guided us step by step (literally!) through the fundamentals and made sure that the learning process was fun and engaging for all. She continually provided encouragement and individualized attention to each couple throughout the workshop. We left the workshop eager to learn more and to stay connected through the “Waltz Club” online community, which anyone completing this workshop can join.”– recent guest
