Originally from Augusta, GA, Brent began his dance career in 1990 with Fred Astaire Dance Studios. During this time, he received extensive training with some of the nation's top coaches such as 7 time Latin champions Forest Vance and Susie Thompson, 8 time American Rhythm champions Bob Powers and Julia Gorchakova, Bruce Whitmore, Bruce Hasson, Sheri Rutherford and many others.
He then went on to be in the top 5 teachers for 6 years straight and 2 of those years he was honored with "Top Teacher Overall".

In the years of 1992 through 1996, Brent competed in Latin dancing at a professional level earning 8 top 3 finishes on a national and regional level.

Leaving his home state of Georgia, Brent moved to Louisville to dance with a local independent studio where he started dancing with Jessica Willhite. Soon after, he and Jessica decided to venture out on their own and thus the birth of Steppin-N-Time.

His goals are to continue to be involved in the local dance community and to have the "happiest, friendliest spot in town". He hopes that you will also find it to be so.

Brent is happily married to Kari Allen, also a fabulous dancer, and they are the proud parents of two beautiful boys. Their son, Coty, is 7 years old and Cooper is 6 months old.
