On top of his many artistic interests, Lucas is known to be a man among men. His sophistication within the ballroom is equally matched by his pure enjoyment of the outdoors. Having spent most of his life a sportsman his adult male students gain confidence in learning that dancing well can be masculine as well as grow you into a gentleman.
