Name:
Colette Marotto

Who do you dance with?
Cristian Radvan (new partnership)

Style + level:
Open Level Standard

Home studio/city:
NRG in Tempe Arizona!

How long have you been dancing Standard? 9 years

Favorite dance? Tango 🫦

Dream competition? Rome was pretty cool so maybe overseas at Blackpool or International! I wish they still had the competition in the castle in Europe.

What is/was your day job? I own a healthcare business - very different than anything creative like dance! I have to switch brains when I leave work.

Pro Couple Inspo? William and Alessandra, Massimo and Alessia and more currently Dusan and Valeria

Favorite comp memory? Dancing at Dance is Fire in Rome while Massimo got so excited he grabbed a mic and started singing and dancing while we competed. He is so animated, I love that guy!

Favorite thing about Pro-Am? We don’t (generally) argue and fight with our pros with the intensity pros do with each other 🤣. And all the friends I’ve made the last ten years. I love seeing my dance friends in different cities.

Competition day essential:
Protein bars!

One word that describes your dancing? Evolving, lately into the feminine.

Favorite post-comp meal? Wine 🍷

Proudest dance moment? Oh I’m self critical so I’m not sure! Maybe unexpectedly winning Emerald - it is one of my favorite comps and the results gave me some needed confidence 🥰

Goal for the year? Create a new product with my new standard pro that is musical and interesting!

One rule carries us through it all: protect your energy. Never give up, and never allow negativity near your work or what you create.
Because movement, beauty, and creation deserve focus, respect, and truth.

This video is about freedom — driven by passion, sharpened by devotion, and held together by love for what we do. Being together, moving toward the same vision, in this shared fantasy world, is what keeps us strong, inspired, and moving forward.

One rule carries us through it all: protect your energy. Never give up, and never allow negativity near your work or what you create.

The journey is not about where you started.
It’s about why you stayed.

It is therapy, discipline, freedom, and home — all at once.
Shaped by passion, devotion, and love for what you do.

Along the way, you learn one thing:
never give up, and never allow negative energy to touch your work, your passion, or what you create.

Because movement, beauty, and creation deserve focus, respect, and truth.

Being part of the ballroom industry is a privilege… not only because it lets us live our passion, but because it teaches discipline, creativity, and resilience. As entrepreneurs, we carry those same values into business—building something of our own, performing on a different kind of stage, and turning our craft into opportunity.
