Meet Mike

Mike Kass, Senior Instructor

Mike

Mike – better known as “Mike, the Mic” due to his loud voice and enthusiastic demeanor – joined the LineDance4You team in June 2023. He started dancing with LD4Y in Dec 2022 and loved the music and the people and became so well known for helping others on the floor that he was coined the “BRAT” (Back Row Assistant Teacher) until he ultimately was pulled up to be a full blown instructor.

Mike, however, started line dancing back in the 90s with some of the “classics”. he went to college and got a degree in Biology, but continued dancing and even got a dance minor from all the dance classes. He continued dancing for fun and would do a lot of East Coast swing.

“Dancing is in my blood I suppose. My grandmother was a part time dance partner to Arthur Murray (yes the one that has a Fox Trot named after him). My mother is a past president of the DC Hand Dance Club. It’s been fun learning some of the popular dances and I love helping others learn how much fun line dance can be!”

Mike is the primary face of Wednesday nights at Harpers Ferry Brewing and Thursday nights at Bluemont Station Winery & Brewery.
