Soon he got the 'Latin bug' and he became a regular face on the local scene in Coventry and Birmingham. Having found his passion, he started teaching at The Litten Tree in Coventry with Terry O’Neill and he has not looked back ever since. Oli is very versatile and teaches many Latin and Afro Cuban styles, salsa on 1 and on 2, Bachata, Kizomba and Cha Cha. Since 2011 Oli has been teaching Salsa and Bachata at Warwick University and has helped with the choreography of their yearly show competition which they have won several times. From 2012 until 2015 Oli has been teaching at Mambo Vibes in Northampton. Oli is also part of the Latin Motion salsa team and teaches at various events and congresses in the UK. In 2011 he co-founded and launched Salsa Coventry with Ahmed Malik, which currently provides weekly classes and has proven to be very popular throughout the West Midlands. Furthermore, he is running a performance group, teaching his own choreography launched and showcase at MotionCity 17 The foundation of Oli’s passion is the interpretation of the music in all its complexities. He enjoys the creative process of wanting to interpret the musical instruments in the song and the breaks, expressing the flavour of the music with dance movements. Oli is known as being a very approachable person, and although he values the technique and likes to push his students technically, on the dance floor the main aim is to have a good time and when you dance with him he will certainly try to put a smile on your face.
