Nikki Marvin stated, “I am so honored and excited that Tony believes in our story enough to help our cause. Atomic Ballroom is home to so many dancers, students, and instructors and is a historical venue in our worldwide social dance scene. We will do absolutely everything in our power to keep the studio going and every little bit helps.”

COVID-19 created problems for many small business owners and in some cases caused many of them to lay off employees or simply close down. In the age of cell phone, computers, tablets, and social media, these distractions sometimes create trouble, but it can also be used to champion a good cause and inspire people to take positive action and help. Such is the case with Atomic Ballroom and Atomic Skate Exchange in Irvine CA.

Atomic Ballroom is the studio where many styles of dancing are taught at all levels and, in the same business center but separate studio, is Atomic Skate Exchange where clients learn to roller-skate, safety awareness, and progression in techniques are taught along with roller-skate and skateboard retail. Dancing or skating is an enjoyable, social, and participatory activity that people enjoy. Either are a great way to exercise while having fun and there is an incredible opportunity for social engagement including, but not limited to, of course, making friends, dating, and feeling better.

For business owners and their instructors, this requires money. Nikki has a GoFundMe page set up and, while effective, they still need to sustain the business a little longer until customers can come back en masse once again for lessons, showcases, and have fun.

The goal of the interview with Tony Babarino on the Orange County Real Estate Podcast is to introduce Atomic Ballroom and Atomic Skate Exchange to a larger audience and encourage people to share their GoFundMe link, donate, or both. "When I saw what Nikki posted on the Irvine Residents Connect group in Facebook about her fundraising efforts, I knew had to help. I like to see the right thing be done, as I'm sure many people do. Since I have the tools, software, knowledge and courage to speak up and speak out with video and blog posts to share valuable content, info, and interviews on all things related to homes, community, how-to, reviews, people of interest, and real estate info already, I reached out to her right way because people and community are very important to all of us in one way or another. Especially when it's local," said Tony Babarino, also a resident and business owner himself as a real estate agent in Irvine. "I believe when the public hears Nikki's story and from some of her customers, people will help. Even a little bit of a financial contribution from a lot of people adds up very fast. So my mission is to boost that awareness and I trust that video, live or play-back of the saved live video on both my Facebook and YouTube Channel, will make people aware and do what they can to help."
