In 2018 Karen reached the quarter-finals of the series with actor Charles Venn.

Able to express emotion through each and every movement, Karen takes choreographed routines to new heights and she has that rare talent to attract the eye of every audience member whenever she dances.

Gorka’s flair for dancing started from a very young age.

He said: “I can’t wait to get out on the road with Karen for this very exciting new tour. We are both really passionate about Latin dance, and this tour will really showcase that.”
