As an admirer of dance and talent, I find myself captivated by the enigmatic figure of Nikita Kuzmin. His journey from a young prodigy in Ukraine to a six-time National Champion in Italy is nothing short of inspiring. The way he gracefully glides across the dance floor, whether it’s on Strictly Come Dancing or Germany’s Let’s Dance, leaves me in awe.
Last year, Nikita Kuzmin, in partnership with Layton Williams, created history on Strictly Come Dancing by earning the first-ever 10 for a cha-cha performance. He’ll undoubtedly aim to achieve similar success with his latest dance partner, Sam Quek.
For the initial live performance at Strictly 2024, the duo plans to dance a lively foxtrot to “Where Did Our Love Go” by The Supremes. They aim to put on an exceptional show, hoping to secure a high position on the leaderboard. However, what truly matters is that they have a blast while doing it.
More Recently, Nikita appeared on Celebrity Big Brother, ending up in the final alongside David Potts and Colson Smith. This stint on the show attracted a fresh group of followers for him.
In 2021, the dancer made his debut on the Strictly Ballroom stage. Throughout the 2023 competition, he consistently wowed audiences with his awe-inspiring routines. However, I’m curious to learn more about him beyond that.

Nikita certainly knows his way around the dance floor, having been on Germany’s Let’s Dance.
He’s not only a six-time champion in Italian Latin and Ballroom dancing competitions, but he’s also highly skilled, making him an ideal teacher for Sam Quek during this year’s competition.
Hailing from Ukraine, he relocated to Italy when he was nine years old. Even at the tender age of four, his passion for dance was evident, suggesting that this pursuit was a natural and preordained part of his life.
It’s interesting to note that there seems to be a familial affinity for dance, given that his sister is a professional ballroom dancer on Dancing with the Stars Italia.

“We feel incredibly grateful. I’m in a very fortunate position, and I’m really happy to be back.”
