Michael and Martina met at Semley dance studio in London in March 1999. After a short try-out period and realising that they had the same goals and ideas in mind, they decided to form a Professional partnership. Michael is from Perth, Australia, while Martina is from Berlin, Germany.
They have been competing together on the highest level in Professional Open Ballroom events since 1999 and although setting up home together in London, have first been representing Australia, even as World Championship representatives, and then Germany in their more recent competitive career.
Being based in ... London enabled them to learn from the best and most famous Ballroom teachers and great Champions, such as Richard and Anne Gleave, Andrew Sinkinson, Janet Gleave, Marcus and Karen Hilton, Anthony Hurley, Stephen Hannah and many more.
It also enabled them to compete many times in all the traditional British Ballroom dancing events such as the British Open Championships in Blackpool, the United Kingdom Championships in Bournemouth and the International Ballroom Championships in London’s Royal Albert Hall.
But Michael and Martina’s ambition, success and reputation took them way further than just operating within the UK. They travelled the world for competitions, cabaret performances and tuition. For a number of years they spent significant time working in Asia, where they have competed, performed and taught in amazing places such as Hong Kong, Singapore, Brunei, Shanghai, Jakarta, Surabaya, Tokyo, Kuala Lumpur and South Korea.
