After a life long study of Ballroom and Latin dance, the now world wide phenomenon of Strictly Come Dancing or Dancing With The Stars debuted in the UK in 2004. The brand new show would become home to Brendan as one of the leading dancers in the world and as the original winner of Series One.

 

Brendan's television career blossomed as he set about creating hundreds of numbers on the hit show as well as performing in iconic group routines with his fellow professional dancers.

​

During his many years in the entertainment business, Brendan has taken part in the most iconic of TV shows including 'SAS Who Dares Wins', 'Xfactor', Intrepic Journeys' (NZ), 'The Pilgrimage', 'Just the Two Of Us', to name just a few. Also a regular on day time TV shows such as 'Good Morning Britain', Loose Women & 'It Takes Two'.

 

Further down the line and in his native New Zealand, Brendan judging the hit show 'Dancing With The Stars' alongside Craig Revel Horward was a natural progression for the professional dancer. The New Zealand television show would also see Brendan put his life's work on display by demonstrating the beautiful art form to his home nation.
