Biography Alexander Ostanin

It is difficult to imagine Odessa without Deribasovskaya, Privoz and the Sea. But the most precious thing in Odessa is, of course, people are Odessa. And people in Odessa are diamonds. The emergence of Step is associated with a musical tradition, but not in dance. At the moment, this is a kind of dance, known in all corners of the world, but he owes his birth to America.

Step is not a sport or a game on a musical instrument, because a person here himself creates and writes music on parquet. Sasha Ostanin - My first world championship took place in the year. I was 13 years old. My dad stumbled upon this world championship on the Internet and it turned out like this: from Ukraine I am the first person who went there and opened this championship for our country.

We were faced with the fact that there were about thousands of steppes from around the world. That is, our jaw dropped, we could not just return it back. Because it was a different world, then for me. And when there was a parade of nations, of course, I went to the stage - I am alone with a sign “Ukraine” and one of my dad with a flag from the hall, waved a flag and shouted, “Sasha forward!

It was very difficult psychologically of course, but then other countries also supported us, because we are alone. We are in vests. The applause was really very loud and very sincere, I did not expect and was confused. Well, these applause I will probably remember my whole life. For a 13 -year -old boy, who was the only one represented by Ukraine at the World Championship in Step, and got to the final - this was a real gift of fate.

Sasha Ostanin was my first exit to the World Cup, that is, I did not imagine the level at all, and when I saw how the children dance, I no longer wanted to speak the next day in my category. Well, nothing, I gathered, danced. This was my first final. I ended up in the final, the final of the World Cup first, and then I went to the World Cup for ten consecutive years. For 10 trips to the World Cup, Sasha tore off gold in the year.

I always went to the final and took only prizes, and is not going to stop. Sasha Ostanin -this year with Serezha Ostanenko, we won a gold medal. It is like a sports system from Ukraine. We have our own team, we have our own organization. We have our national festival, where the best are selected that will go to the World Cup that will represent our country. Well, of course, in the soul, we represent Odessa in any case, but purely technically we represent our country - Ukraine.

What is it to become the world champion? Sasha Ostanin -really, the “world champion”, this is just a few words. This is of course the title is very prestigious, it can even sound louder than it is. I do not know what needs to be done in order to become, probably to want it, to desire it. That is, fall asleep with this thought, wake up with this thought, and of course work on it.

It is clear that thoughts are material, but without any actions, they are not feasible. They cannot just take place, they will not be able to appear, they will not be able to realize. Of course, it is necessary to make a lot of efforts for this, you need a lot of work, you need a lot of nerves, effort. Because, it was the very goal that was stuck somewhere, I could not free myself.

I needed this, and I trained from year to year, worked on myself, and yet I achieved it, somehow. He not only represents Ukraine at the championships around the world. Sasha Ostanin became indisputably, the winner in the first project “All Dancing”. Having passed all the trials, he received a monetary prize fund, which allowed him to increase his skills in the future. Make it available to everyone in Odessa.

Sasha Ostanin - immediately after the project, they asked me this question - “That's what you will spend this money on? Without thinking twice, I would say at once two things that I want to spend on. This is my self -development, I went to America and studied with the best teachers of the world. And he immediately said that I want to open my dance studio in Odessa, precisely in Odessa.

To teach a new generation, also to your skill. And share experience with them, the knowledge that I acquired. Sasha is an ordinary Odessa guy, but he dances like a god.

He had a turning point in life, leave, give up, start doing something else. Sasha Ostanin -since I was engaged in dancing, then probably the most turning point was when I practically abandoned dancing. I did not dance for a year and a half. It is difficult to say what it was connected with, probably, some kind of fire, interest faded. I went to the university, at that moment I was still engaged in ballroom dancing with a partner, and I threw ballroom dancing.

And then somehow, my second wind opened. And on some day, I again realized that I want to put on my Stepovka, my shoes and go to the hall again, dance him. And from that day, I no longer thought and thought to abandon this business, from that moment, I have already dancing to this day and I will not throw it, that's for sure.
