While it's no surprise to some people, that Sophia is most comfortable in the kitchen cooking up a storm, you may be surprised to know that she is equally as passionate about dancing as she is about food. A passion that began in 2013 where she appeared on Channel Seven's "Dancing With The Stars" as a celebrity contestant. 

Sophia was quickly introduced into the world of dancing, and was learning the foundations to a multitude of dance styles from both the Latin and Ballroom genres, and within weeks, Sophia was performing choreographed dance routines in front of a live television audience. 

Dance styles including Cha Cha, Samba, Paso Doble, Contemporary and the Viennese Waltz taught by some of the best dancers and choreographers in the country, if not the country. 

Since then she has continued to dance with husband Carlos Da Silva at the El Paso Latin American Dance Studio. It is through assisting Carlos with his wedding dance lessons, that she discovered her own passion for creating choreography and for working with couples.

Sophia's ability to understand and relate to her students on both a personal and professional level, has seen her thrive in this arena which has now become her area of expertise.

Through her unique vision, ideas, and choreography, Sophia will bring to life the story of your love through the passion of dance. 

Carlos Da Silva is the Managing Director, Principal Instructor, Professional Performer and Choreographer of El Paso Latin American Dance Studio in the Inner West suburb of Annandale. 

Early in his career Carlos studied and excelled in the artful expression of Flamenco, both in Australia and in Europe. While travelling throughout Europe he also studied Latin American dance which eventually became his all consuming passion and his forte. 

On returning to Australia he soon became one of Sydney's most recognised teachers. He held senior positions in many of Sydney's leading dance venues prior to opening his very own dance studio in the year of 1997, which has now been operating for over 20 years. 

Carlos is held in high regard throughout the industry, as a Performer and for his dedication to tuition. His students enjoy his natural flare, talent and warmth. He has the ability to teach and quickly produce individual styles that demonstrate their greatest potential.

Carlos has also formed and trained his own performing troupe called "The El Paso Latin American Dancers", in which many of this students have gone on to appear in other stage shows and productions, and have built for themselves their own successful dancing careers. 

Carlos and Sophia are also the Co-Founders of Dream Day Dance Studio, which will see them dedicating more of their time towards working with couples to achieve the wedding dance of their dreams.
