Listen Later

Batt Johnson sit's down with us to chat and tell us about what he's been up to all these years and what led him to dance. His upbeat, optimistic energy was a joy to be around, is always a joy to be around. Batt is the type of person who when he walks into a room the energy of the room improves. 

He is someone who has lived through a lot and still maintains a deep fascination for people and for life.
