Riccardo and Sabrina’s dance journey began in Rome, Italy, where they both started dancing at the age of six. Trained in International Latin, Ballroom, and traditional Italian folk styles, they quickly rose through the ranks, competing nationally and internationally. Riccardo went on to represent Denmark for a year before ultimately moving to the United States, where his career flourished further on the professional circuit.
Career highlights include:
- Regional, Interregional Champion and Italian National Finalist
- Danish Professional Finalist
- Multiple Professional Rising Star titles across the U.S. in International Latin
- Switched to American Rhythm, reaching the World Championship Final at only their second event in the style
- USA Rising Star National Finalists
- 2-Time World Championship Finalists
- 4-Time Blackpool Dance Festival Finalists – including 2-time Vice Champions
- USA National Mambo Champions
Now retired from competitive dancing, Riccardo and Sabrina focus their energy on teaching and judging, continuing to shape and inspire the next generation of dancers. It’s a true pleasure to have them with us as resident coaches at Brooklyn Dancesport Club.
