Aries

There is no such thing as not spotting an Aries on the dancefloor. They are the ones jumping in Quickstep or Jive all around the floor. They are very passionate through their movements, and they radiate tons of confidence & energy. 

Competitive, bold, and ambitious, they have maximum chances of becoming champions.

Nevertheless, they are quite impulsive, and sometimes you might not keep up with them.

Famous Aries dancers: Espen Salberg, Stefano di Filippo, Oxana Lebedew, Bryan Watson, Sergiu Rusu, Anna Matus, Allan Tornsberg, Salikhova Elena, Charles-Guillaume Schmitt, Lasse Ødegaard.

Taurus

If you want a stable and reliable partner, Taurus should be your go-to person! Responsible and grounded, but very sensual, a Taurus dancer is the right combination between pragmatism and artistry. They enjoy voluptuous movements in their routines and a passionate partner with whom to share their emotions.

Be aware, though, that a Taurus is sometimes hard to move out of their comfort zone. They need a little bit of push from the back. 

Famous Taurus dancers: Anastasia Glazunova, Domenico Soale, Catia Vanone, Aleksander Makarov, Evgeny Moshenin, Sirpa Suutari.

Gemini

Very artistic, Geminis are always in a quest to discover more about the world and themselves. Gemini dancers will always come up with new ideas of routines and are never afraid to experiment with new techniques or exercises. For some, especially for the Earth signs, they might even seem a bit weird sometimes. 

One thing to pay attention to this sign is that they are quite unpredictable or inconsistent.

Famous Gemini dancers: Joanna Leunis, Franco Formica, Michael Malitowski, Kristina Moshenskaya, Kristina Stokkebroe, Gioia Cerasoli, Pasha Pashkov.

Cancer

Suave and graceful movements that highlight their sensibility – this is the Cancer dancer in a nutshell. They are dedicated partners who will go to the ends with you, provided you offer them the stability they need and the same level of devotion and understanding.

Their downside is that their sensitivity can overcome them, and they can be too emotional.

Leo

A natural leader, having a Leo dance partner, expect an intense and energetic experience. They love grand gestures, and they want to show the world how attentive and caring they can be in their dance partnership. So expect outstanding routines full of power and romantic gestures. 

But be aware! Leos, more than often, do not accept other people’s opinions and can be quite stubborn.

Famous Leo dancers: Monica Nigro, Klemen Prasnikar, Paul Killick, Ina Jeliazkova, Hazel Newberry

Virgo

This earth sign is a perfectionist at heart and isn’t afraid to improve skills through diligent and consistent practice. Their hard work and analytical skills enable them to be incredible dancers. Every movement they do is the epitome of correctness. 

Have patience with Virgos as their perfectionism can lead them to have unrealistic expectations from themselves and their partners.

Libra

Libra dancers are the embodiment of elegance, harmony, and communication. Ruled by Venus, the planet of beauty, graceful movements come naturally to Libras. As partners, they will always put you first, above their own desires. They are incredible at diplomacy, which will all know it’s a very good aspect to master it in the dancesport world. 

Sometimes they can be quite indecisive or could strike as superficial because of their desire to be surrounded by beautiful things.

Famous Libra dancers: Dasha Chesnokova, Peter Stokkebroe, Gaynor Fairweather, Sergey Ryupin, Svetlana Gudyno, Richard Gleave.

Scorpio

With magnetic energy, intense look, and incredible dedication, Scorpio dancers are irresistible. They are very resourceful people and will always find a solution to any problem, which in our dancing world can come in handy more often than you’d think.

Underneath that tough look, there is a very sensitive and artistic soul. Nevertheless, be aware that sometimes they can be a bit too intense. 

Famous Scorpio dancers: Nino Langella, Francesco Galuppo, Jukka Haappalainen, Anastasia Milyutina, Melia.

Sagittarius

What are some of the best combinations of characteristics in a dancer? Creativity and having big plans! Sagittarius dancers will never stop wanting more. More comps, more titles, more knowledge, more experience. 

They are incredibly creative and have a free spirit. Next to a Sagittarius dancer, your dancing career will, for sure, go towards great horizons.

Nevertheless, be aware that sometimes they can promise more than can deliver!

Capricorn

Do you feel that you need a partner who is disciplined and hard-working? Then Capricorns should be your first choice. They are brilliant and studious. A Capricorn will always get what they set their mind to, so if their goal is to be a World Champion, they will get it sooner or later.

Every movement from their routines is attentively chosen, as they are very detail-oriented. 

One downside is that they often cannot accept a different opinion than theirs, sometimes having a “my way or the highway” attitude.

Famous Capricorn dancers: Karina Smirnoff, Katusha Demidova, Marina Sergeeva, Debora Pacini, Daniella Karagach.

Aquarius

Have you noticed those dancers with original pieces of routines that make you say: “Wow, why didn’t I think of that?” Oh well, those dancers are probably Aquarius. 

Aquarius hate to be labeled and will do anything in their power to have liberty. That might come with a few downsides in the world of Ballroom & Latin, but they will always aspire to their freedom.

Famous Aquarius dancers: Maurizio Vescovo, Arūnas Bižokas, Donatas Vezelis, Lina Chatkevičiūtė, Colin James, Veronika Golodneva, Ieva Žukauskaitė-Sodeikienė.

Pisces 

Known as the most artistic zodiac sign, having a Pisces as a partner, you will always experiment with the emotions and feelings of a dance to the maximum. In the dance couple, the Pisces man will have great intuition and will be a great leader, while the Pisces lady will express a wide variety of emotions through movement.

Sometimes, they might come across as too wrapped up in their own reality, and it might be hard to understand them.

Famous Pisces dancers: Gabriele Goffredo, William Pino, Evaldas Sodeika, Marius-Andrei Balan, Evgeny Nikitin, Edgars Linis, Evaldas Sodeika.
