"Growing up, I was a talented footballer but chose to follow a career in dance. I still enjoy watching it and also playing tennis, badminton and going scuba diving."

Matt attended Laines Theatre Arts, and luckily worked straight after graduating on a production of Beauty and the Beast. Since then, Matt has regularly appeared in the West End and his career highlight was appearing alongside Patrick Swayze in Guys and Dolls. Matt also teaches Tap and Jazz at various schools in London.

Matt explains his reason for appearing SYTYCD: "I want to bring Tap back and make it accessible to everyone by infusing old fashioned Tap dancing with tricks and Break dancing."

Having only had supporting roles so far, Matt feels it is his time to "step into the spotlight and be the star of the show".

Matt's friends describe him as "energetic and a bit of a prankster who has a massive heart and is inspiringly motivated".
