Charlie Bowring – Line Dance Instructor, DJ & Choreographer
I first discovered line dancing back in 1986. Watching the girls on the floor, I was instantly hooked—and I knew this was something I wanted to be a part of. Learning to dance didn’t come easily at first, and remembering those early struggles is what gives me the patience and empathy I bring to every new dancer I teach.
By the time I left school in 1988, I had already competed in several BWDA dance competitions and choreographed my first dance, Coca Cola Cowboy. That was just the beginning of my journey.
My passion for choreography was reignited in 2020 when the COVID-19 pandemic brought social dancing to a halt. During that time, I joined Rob Fowler and the I.C.E choreography group, where I had the opportunity to take my creativity to new heights. Working with such a talented and supportive group of dancers from around the world was truly inspiring.
Country music was what drew me into dancing in the first place, and it still moves me the most. For me, dancing is more than just steps—it’s a way to let go of the day’s stress, to express myself, and to bring a little bit of attitude to the floor.
Hope to see you out there soon—let’s dance!
