Twitch Boss

First of all, his legitimate last name is Boss, so you can already tell what a stud he is.

Second, his moves are incredible (he’s been featured in Step Up movies, Magic Mike, and more).

Third, he is the resident DJ on Ellen, which is a skill he picked up for the show.

These are just a few reasons to love Twitch and everything he does.

But on top of all that, he’s a devoted husband and father. And one of the nicest, realest guys you’ll ever meet.

I loved hearing Twitch’s story of breaking into the Hollywood dance scene through pure passion, hard work, and (he admits) some naivete about the odds.

I also really liked what he said about family, relationships, and what matters most.

If you somehow haven’t ever seen Twitch dance, check him out, and get ready for a positive, powerful perspective on success in Episode 406.
