Josh started dancing at age 11 and competing at 12. Talked into it by his mother, it began a whole new way of life for him. After competing for 2 years with his first dance partner, Kristal Forresteri, Josh then met Loren. They have been together as partners since then and love the sport with a passion. Josh feels indebted to his mother for encouraging him into dance and for supporting him throughout his dancing career.
