About Jorge

Jorge began his professional dance career 15 years ago, first dancing and teaching at Fred Astaire and several independent dance studios in the metro Atlanta area.

Most recently, Jorge and his partners opened Academy Ballroom International, the next generation of ballroom dance schools providing access to an entire network of World Class Dancers coaches and schools.

As an instructor and competitor, Jorge has trained extensively with many national champions to bring the highest quality training to his students. For more than a decade now, Jorge has transformed students into high level Ballroom and Latin dance competitors by teaching them the skill, technique, artistry and precision to achieve national recognition in the various ballroom circuits.

Among his latests accomplishments are the following:

Jorge continues to be very active dancing Pro/Am with his students, as well as coaching amateur competitive couples. He also enjoys teaching social dance students and couples who are excited about learning ballroom dance. He is available for coaching, choreography and performances.

One way is by continually enhancing my own training in order to stay up to date with the latest techniques and styles in the dance world. I have and continue to train with such ballroom and Latin dance greats as Debbie Avalos, Corky Ballas, Eddie Ares, Rosendo Fumero, Kathryn Schaeffer most recently Toni Redpath.

For over 15 years, I have been and continue to be very active in the dancesport competition circuits. Most recently winning the 2007 East/West Rising Star Rhythm Championships held at the prestigious Hotlanta Dance Challenge. In addition to winning or becoming finalist in Smooth and Latin competitions including Emerald Ball, Atlanta Open, Wisconsin Dancesport Competition and others.

My commitment is for those whose goal is to achieve the highest levels of competition and/or performance oriented dance.
