That's Him!

With a 23 years international competitive dance carrier behind him Jan retired in 2002 to focus on education and sharing his love of dancing with others. Jan also has 25 years of senior-level and entrepreneurial career experience in the hospitality and travel industries. In addition, he is a sought-after Business Mentor, working with individuals to build their businesses and alongside, their personal wealth.

Jan's savvy in business was fundamentally impacted by a three-decade global international dance career as both a professional and amateur dancer, beginning at the age of 10, with studies in the art from the tender age of 4. Growing up with persistent targets, strategic work & planning goals, being guided and mentored by professional team coaches - and always striving to be the best - is truly the foundation of his success.

With countless achievements and awards between 1981 and 2002, alongside training with many of the world's leading dance aficionadoes, Jan represented Australia, Austria and Norway, earning more than a dozen medals, and as many Championship Titles. 

He also continuous to be a sought-after public speaker, sharing his message about building a personal lifestyle that combines passion, education and life experiences. Jan's mandate: "Your smile is your logo, your personality is your business card, how you leave others feeling after an experience with you becomes your trademark."
