HELLO! I'M WALT (STEVE) EDWARDS
I make learning to dance easy and simple so couples can have fun and connect—faster.
I'm a professional dance instructor and have been teaching couple's dancing for nearly 30 years.
​
I have danced competitively myself (I am a World Champion and a Master Level Dancer in the UCWDC) and I teach and train others to do the same.
​
I began my career with Author Murray Studios where I was a certified Dance Specialist and taught ballroom, country, swing, and Latin dancing.
​
From there, I shifted my focus to specialize in Country Western couple's dancing (night club two, cha cha, waltz, two step, east coast swing and west coast swing).
Along the way, I created the Circular Track Method of teaching dance and also a new couple's dance that is danceable to nearly every piece of music, The VERSi.
In my 30 years of teaching, the fun of it is what I have found to be the best part of learning to dance—the fun. The connection. The movement.
Even the competitors, at the end of the day, simply wanted to know how to dance socially and have fun with it when it was all said and done. To enjoy dancing!
And, that is where my focus lies today. I spent years boiling down the method of teaching dance to simplify the process to make it easier and more practical to learn.
​
I incorporated theory from ancient martial arts utilizing fluid body movement, balance, and smoothness to make couple's dancing flow and feel better to learn and to dance. To make it instinctive.
This system makes it easier for the leader and the follower. Easier to learn, to lead, to follow AND easier on their bodies. It helps them to have fluid, soft movements that benefit the body...not work against it.
​
That is my specialty. I will teach you how to quickly, easily and smoothly learn to dance socially AND to get out there and have fun with it now! These skills of connection and body movement will benefit you for the rest of your life.
