Paul Zaidman was born in the USSR in 1970 and was taken to Israel as a 1 year old then moved to Australia in 1980.
Paul began his dancing career as a 5 year old and excelled in every discipline of dance and Theatre he put his mind to.
When Patrick Swayze filmed the movie Dirty Dancing, Paul Zaidman found his calling.
Paul, then 18 years old, turned to Ballroom, Latin American and the street Latin arts where quickly rose to the highest ranks of the Australian dance sport world, travelled the globe competing in different nations.
Paul has appeared in television productions such as Strictly Dancing on the ABC, and the Australian version of Dancing With The Stars where he partnered Kimberley Davis.
Paul says the highlight of his career was teaching Danii Kylie Minogue to dance Salsa.
Paul's greatest achievement was undoubtedly making it to the finals at the prestigious Blackpool Dance Sport Festival in May of 2014. Paul managed to place Australia into 4th position in the world beating out 88 different countries that competed that year.
" I love the feeling I get when my body is about to hit that great big wall. I know its there and as I hit, my smile gets bigger and bigger because I know that everyone else is there too. I know I'm about to push through the crowd to get in front and as I do I grin even more through the pain."
Paul also holds a first-degree (1st Dan) black belt in Tae Kwon Do, a martial art he's been practicing since the age of fourteen.
" All I wanted to do was dance with the girls, and all the boys wanted to do was punish and humiliate me, so I had to protect myself somehow. So I took up Tae Kwon Do and years later after the boys had left me alone, I fell in love with the beautiful but powerful art form."
These days Paul is sought after all over the world for his know ledge of dance and his beautiful, practical but mostly philosophical approach to teaching and coaching dance.
He has a way of explaining and delivering the knowledge which leaves people touched, moved, and inspired. ver menos
