Ken and Bryn have been partners for seven years. During that time, they have moved from Rising Star to Classic and become NASDE champions, placing 2nd at the Open Swing Dance Championships last year. As routine dancers, they are known for delivering crowd-energizing pieces and exploring the intersection between west coast swing and hip hop. As social dancers and teachers, they seek to marry old school concepts with their creative pursuits and to inspire new dancers to appreciate the foundations of the dance like they do.

Both Ken and Bryn have diverse dance backgrounds. Ken grew up dancing hip hop but fell in love with partner dancing in the 2010s. He has sampled bachata, salsa, kizomba, and Houston two step, and became semi-professional in DFW swingout before turning to west coast swing in 2015. Thanks to his excellent coaches and work ethic, he entered his first Champions jack and jill in 2019, four years after his first Novice competition.

West coast swing was Bryn's first love: she began social dancing with her parents in Northern California at five years old and became a serious competitor in her teens. She has supplemented her west coast with contemporary, jazz, ballet, and international latin (cha cha, samba, rumba, paso doble, and jive), which she danced at the open gold level. She earned her first Champions points at seventeen and officially moved into the division after placing top three in the NASDE All Stars Jack and Jill tour.
