John Wagner

John had virtually no involvement in the world of dance, except for a lesson or two in Western Two Step

and two brief attempts to learn Salsa. (John notes that a few moves on the dance floor during his college

days might qualify as something approaching “dance”, but barely.) John then met his future wife, Spoke

N Motion’s founder and artistic director, Teri Wagner. He was introduced to integrated dance with a

wedding dance choreographed by world champion ballroom dancer Karen Lee Bridge, and was coached

by Karen and Teri. After a few months of driving Teri back and forth to dance class, John decided to join

the company and has been with Spoke N Motion for the last 5 years.
