My name is Chris Winiarski!
I have started my dancing journey as a young and successful ballroom dancer wining many local and national tournaments up to the age of 16 y o teenager when I discovered different dance styles like hip hop, street dance, popping and locking, classical ballet, and then I felt in love with the world of Latin Music (cuban, NY and LA salsa, bachata, kizomba and body movement).
Shortly after that I was discovered by and invited to a collaboration with Przemysław "Mek" Wereszczyński - founder of The Salsa Kings Dance Company. I have trained with him/them for over 1.5 year, working on my skills in New York Salsa, Afro-Jazz, Body Isolation, Latin Funk, Musicality and Improvisation.

My experience is supported by some interesting achievements like: 1st Prize at Polish IDO Championship in Salsa – Lublin 2011, co-creation of mobile app for iPhone / iPad – called "Cool Salsa" with an amazing dancer PAULINA TURSKA (currently based in NYC, USA), collaboration with FANIA Records – the biggest Latin music label in the world, many trips to International Salsa Festivals (Poland, England, Scotland, Germany, Belgium, Cyprus, UAE), 30 minutes long performance "Roots Part I" by Przemysław Wereszczyński in Sopot Dance Theater "OFF de BICZ and more.
Also, as the founder of BODY MOVEMENT ACADEMY, my little dance project based in London, I did introduce my way of learning Body Movement and Isolation to the London Salsa Scene with quite impressive success.
The idea of the class was to show fellow students how to separate parts of the body from each other, become faster, stronger and more aware of the body and it's movement in general - everything with music awareness. I was teaching this class - BODY MOVEMENT/ISOLATION between 2011 and 2016.
Currently, I am based in Barcelona/Spain where I am dealing with Skin Cancer (MELANOMA) in stage IVC but once my health is sorted out, I will get back to what I love the most - TEACHING!
