Kevin Maloney owns the Savaria Dance Studio with his wife Leslie.  Kevin and Leslie took their first ballroom dance lessons in 1998, and they have been dancing ever since.

"I have often been asked why we started the Savaria Dance Studio.  My response is always the same - we had a few too many drinks.   Seriously, though Leslie and I have always enjoyed dancing since our college days (back in the disco days).  When we took up ballroom dancing, we viewed it as a fun activity that allowed us to spend time together.  We met a number of  great people through that studio.  We had a lot of fun together, both at the studio and outside the studio.  Our goal is to create a vibrant dance facility where people come to learn, have fun and take their minds off the daily stress of everyday life." 

For his day job, Kevin is a Managing Director of Gottex Fund Management, a investment management firm that offers a number of Fund of Hedge Fund products to institutions and high net worth individuals.  Kevin is the Director of North American Research for Gottex.  Kevin has a MA and Ph.D. in Finance and Economics from Washington University, and a BA from Trinity College.
