As a Detroit native, Drew paid his dues by entering many competitions with his dance group 313 In Motion. He attended the Tina Marie School of Dance from June 2001 to September 2004 which included Hip­Hop, Jazz, Ballet/Lyrical, and Tap. Drew’s love for dance has lead him to master a repertoire of dances which include Ballroom, Grayston, Bop, Latin Hustle, Chop, Salsa, and of course, Chicago Stepping. In October 2009, Drew decided to take his deep love of dancing and joy of sharing his knowledge onto the business arena.

It was in Highland Park, MI that he would create Smooth­Tivity Productions LLC. Drew instructed 45 students at Renaissance High School in Detroit, MI and choreographed their performance for their Spring Fling. Additionally, he instructs classes in Southfield, MI, as well as Hamtramck, MI. When called upon, Drew does private individual sessions and instructs workshops throughout the United States.

He also coached Carlton Puckett and Lauren LaGrone of Los Angeles, California to a win for the WLSC competition. The majority of these competitors have been winners. The mission statement of Smoothtivity Productions, LLC is to make Stepping a more widely known form of dance and to develop thousands of excellent dancers, whether for personal or competitive dance.

Drew’s motto is “Smooth Activity Creates Smooth­Tivity —Dare To Be Different.” His goal is not only to achieve for himself but to help others achieve as well.
