About Tatiana Keegan

Tatiana Keegan and her partner Anatoliy Shvarts are the reigning World Champions in Senior III International Latin after conquering a fiercely competitive field of 110 couples from around the globe at the 2025 WDSF championships in Vienna, Austria. They are the first Americans to ever win that prestigious honor.

Born in Volgograd, Russia, Tatiana was the Russian Amateur National Champion in Ten Dances before coming to the United States and winning many of the top professional Open and Rising Star Latin championships, including the Ohio Star Ball and the U.S. Ballroom Championship with Tony Dovolani of “Dancing with the Stars.” After a seven-year break to get married and start a family, she returned to reach the World Professional Latin Championships in Germany with partner Werner Figar.

In 2019, she turned amateur to compete in her age category (45+) and partnered with Anatoliy to dominate the field, becoming U.S. National Champions five years in a row. The couple won the WDO Senior II World Championship in New Jersey in 2024 and Spain’s WDSF Senior II Open to the World Championship in 2022. They reached the WDSF Senior II World Championship finals for three straight years (Spain ’22, the Netherlands ’23, and Germany ’24) before becoming World Champions in Senior III in Austria in 2025.

What Students Say about Tatiana Keegan

Oct 2026
Tatiana is THE BEST!! We both had zero dance experience before our wedding and were dreading our first dance, but because of her it was one of our favorite moments of the day. She made it so fun and exciting! If you’re looking for someone with ENERGY and positivity, definitely consider working with Tatiana :)

We cannot recommend Tatiana Keegan enough! One of us had zero dance experience, and the other hadn’t danced since high school over 10 years ago—and neither of us had ever tried ballroom before. After 10 lessons with Tatiana, we went from nervous and clueless to completely confident. She choreographed a first dance that was perfectly “us,” easy to learn, and looked amazing on the big day. Her energy is infectious, her teaching style is fun and clear, and every lesson felt like hanging out with a friend who also happens to be a brilliant instructor. We absolutely killed our first dance, and it’s one of our favorite memories from the wedding—all thanks to Tatiana.
