Episode notes

In this episode, Marius Iepure sits down with Peter Maxwell - former World Latin champion, theatre maker, coach, adjudicator, studio builder, and one of the few people to have seen DanceSport from every possible angle - for an honest conversation about a life fully lived inside dance.

They talk about starting at a very young age, eighteen years partnering Lynn Harman, writing the foreword to the WDSF technique books, the real story behind the Blackpool cape, walking away at his peak to chase New York and the stage, building the Ballroom Dance Theatre, and why clarity matters more than confusion.

If you care about the human side of DanceSport, not just the results but the people and values behind them ; this episode is worth your time.
