Antonio Berardi is an Italian salsa dancer, instructor and choreographer based at Berardi Academy in Roccasecca, Italy. He is best known for his long-running partnership with his sister, Jasmina Berardi, and for Berardi Style, a technical and highly musical approach to salsa and mambo training.
Antonio and Jasmina began with a strong competitive dance foundation and went on to become one of Italy’s most recognizable salsa partnerships. They earned bronze in salsa at the 2013 World Games and built an international record across salsa, bachata and Latin dance events.
Through Berardi Academy and Berardi On Demand, Antonio teaches a structured method built around technique, body movement, footwork and mambo fusion. The training includes Afro, rumba, pachanga and Palladium-style influences, but the focus stays on giving dancers better control, timing and clarity in their movement.
Antonio’s work is especially useful for dancers who want competition-level precision without losing musical expression. As a performer, teacher and judge, he has helped make the Berardi name a recognizable part of the European salsa and mambo circuit.
