We’ve danced through grief, joy, and change to build a love that lasts. Every day we live with purpose and help others believe in love too.
You decide who wins $20,000 and appears in Variety magazine as America’s Favorite Couple
We met on the dancefloor. The moment we touched, time stood still. Our hearts flared to life with a deep connection our minds didn’t remember, but our souls couldn’t forget. The music moved through us like fire, awakening passion with each step. Our paths shifted that night. Tango took hold of us. We didn’t expect it, but we were grateful. Even now, 26 years later, people think we just fell in love. Maybe we did. Maybe we keep falling in each moment with every glance, every smile, every dance.
What is your favorite memory you've shared as a couple?Our favorite memory was sitting in our car, dreaming of a place where people could feel safe, seen, happy, & alive. That vision became our dance studio. Teens found purpose. Adults found healing. Some met & married. Others said it saved their lives, rescuing them from drugs & despair. The police called us the safest place in Kansas City. Dance was the heartbeat, but what we built was family. That night in the car gave birth to an achievement we’ll never forget & a legacy remembered by thousands.
What would you do with $20,000?We’ll use $20,000 to bring our dream to life as the first ballroom dance couple with a Las Vegas residency. Covid nearly ended our lives & careers, but we fought to keep dreaming and dancing through fear and uncertainty. This isn’t about fame. We want to remind people what love feels like & that age can’t stop you. Five shows a week filled with joy, truth, & connection. Passion doesn’t disappear with age. It deepens. And we believe the world still needs raw, loving, & honest expression on stage.
