Attila started dancing at the age of 15. After completing all the classes his dancing school in Vienna had to offer, he quickly became interested in dance sports and started competing in International Latin American style.

After several years of practicing, ups and downs on the competition floor and different dance partners he has reached the highest division “S –Class” in Austria. Attila was a registered athlete of the World Dance Sport Federation (WDSF) and until 2022 he represented Austria at international Latin dance sport competitions.

In 2017 Attila was introduced to West Coast Swing and instantly fell in love with the dance. The ability to improvise and interpret music spontaneously was something he always felt was lacking in the ballroom dances.

Filled with motivation, he started competing in WCS at his first event and reached the All-Star division 2.5 years later – each competition surrounded by great amounts of social dancing. The love for all the aspects of this dance has been growing ever since and soon WCS became the main focus of his dancing career.

In December 2025 Attila reached 150 Allstar Points and qualified for the Champions Division. Since he rarely misses out on a chance to social dance, he often sleeps during the day at events.

On his journey as a dancer Attila has worked with different international top teachers and coaches and took classes as well as private lessons in other dance styles such as Salsa, Bachata, Lindy Hop, Ballet, etc., always eager to broaden his knowledge and finding new pieces he could implement in his dancing.
Attila has been teaching and choreographing since 2012 in the styles Standard, Latin and of course more recently, Swing.

“Sharing my passion and knowledge with other dancers means not only teaching but also learning for myself – and it is as rewarding as it gets.” – Attila
