Chuck and Lauren met while Lauren was living and social dancing her heart out in Singapore and Chuck was there working at an event in 2018. They have been great friends ever since. It was not until June last year that they decided to join forces as a teaching couple and it has been an epic whirlwind of a time.

Coupling Chuck's invaluable amount of experience and passion for WCS with Lauren's hyperactivity and love of movin' and groovin', it makes for a dynamic and rather entertaining duo!
