Meet Bruce Monsanty, a resident of Orlando since 1988 and a professional ballroom dance instructor with a reputation for transforming beginner ballroom students into graceful dancers over and over again. Born in Youngstown Ohio, Bruce began his dance career at Arthur Murray in the mid-1980’s. Throughout his competitive career (1988-1996), he compiled a long list of titles that includes an Arthur Murray National Professional Rising Star Smooth Champion and an Arthur Murray Open Professional Smooth Finalist. His Pro-Am record is equally as impressive, with a long list of competition students that never cease to place high in Championship divisions.
Bruce was also the choreographer for the Opening Ceremonies at the 1996 Olympic Soccer Games in Orlando, Fl, which were held at the Citrus Bowl. Performing with Lisa Bentley, also a ballroom dance instructor, Bruce choreographed an entire show for 50 couples and performed a Foxtrot with Bentley in front of thousands of spectators before the soccer games commenced during the 1996 Atlanta Olympics.
