Arjay's entire life has been dedicated to the exploration of art and music. For 17 years Arjay toured the world as a classical violinist before traveling the world as a dance professional. He studied music and also graduated with a degree in Art and Graphic Design, a passion he shares with his wife. Searching for more in music and the arts, Arjay pursued his hobby and love of dance and turned it into a successful career. There are not many dances Arjay doesn't know. He currently travels the world performing, teaching, choreographing, judging, mentoring dancers as well as deejaying and emceeing some of the biggest events in the world.
Dance to me is about personal growth, inspiring others, developing perspective and insight through artistic expression, establishing an internal connection as well as creating memorable experiences. Through performance, teaching, social dancing and mentoring I am committed to artistic excellence as well as to promote positivity, creativity, musicality, expression and the longevity of our craft. My students' experience in all types of dance is important to me and I hope to be a part of them experiencing dance in their lives in the most positive and joyful way.
Arjay is an accomplished West Coast Swing Champion of Classic, Showcase, Jack and Jill, Teams and Strictly Swing Divisions. His most memorable accomplishments include winning Showcase at Grand Nationals, winning Classic at America’s Classic, winning Invitational Jack and Jill at Phoenix, winning Champions Strictly and Teams at the US Open. One of Arjay's most recent accomplishments is being awarded The Crystal Boot Award for Best Advanced Choreography for a line dance with world renowned line dance champion & choreographer Rachael McEnaney.
"Arjay offers everyone something to work on, regardless of skill level (and keeps me interested!) I’m sure it isn’t easy to be teaching on multiple levels simultaneously, but you do it well and it’s appreciated!"Pricilla Christie — Boston, Massachusetts
If you haven’t figured it out already, I have been dancing with the wonderful Malia San Nicolas from Southern California. Here is one of our favorite competition dances in the last few months. We can’t wait to continue to share with all of you the magic of our unique partnership. Stay tuned for more.

Love the website, Arjay, and love, love, love the song and video. If I had to describe your dance style, I guess I’d say “Wild Abandon!” Keep it coming!
