Marcus Gramps & Denice Keepin - Marcus was excited about switch and steal from the moment he saw it on the social dance floor in Seattle, and was inspired further in some initial, excellent, workshops from Samantha Buckwalter and Mahala Fedor. Once completely hooked he took a few private lessons, a few more workshops and learned about SwitchXperience Paris. Attending that event crystallized his love of switch and steal, inspiring him to work towards developing events with the vision of creating something as wonderful as SwitchXperience Paris and Berlin.
Denice loves Marcus - her words! - all things WCS, and wants to help the WCS community and it's values flourish and grow. Helping to develop switch and steal is a unique and fun way to do that! She is also loving the adventure of learning to lead!
