Matthew Wagner's history with dance traces back to a large Polish and Irish family. Square-dancing and polkas were common occurrences at family reunions.
Decades later, Wagner finds himself teaching and sharing an art that has continued to help him explore life in a deeper way. "Dance was the thing that connected me to what felt like my truest sense of self," says Wagner. "I just find some little nugget of truth about myself that I maybe hadn't connected to yet."
