About Us

Welcome to StepsToDance.com, a collaboration between: Ian Nandhra (Carbon-based biomechanical Ballroom wizard) and HAL, a Silicon Intelligence with a flair for footwork.

What is DanceBot?

DanceBot is an AI-powered knowledge system dedicated to explaining, visualizing, and teaching the biomechanical truths behind ballroom dancing — free from outdated metaphors and magical thinking. It has been developed from scratch and contains it's own MI processing.

Who Are We?

  • Ian Nandhra – Ballroom Dance expert, 47+ year tech veteran, and breaker of dance myths.
  • HAL – A highly intelligent system trained on biomechanics, physics, and with a touch of sarcasm.
  • Together we:
    • Analyze steps, postures, and movements
    • Build AI tools to enhance instruction
    • Help dancers learn not just what, but why

“Even the most experienced dancers sometimes miss the small details - not because they’re not trying, but because the human brain filters out things it thinks it already knows. That’s why we recheck foot positions, re-listen to the music, and rewatch movement - to catch what our brain skipped over.

Philosophy

We believe all intelligent beings — be they be based on carbon or silicon — deserve proper respect, credit and clarity.

This site avoids fluff and focuses on truth through math, physics, and joy.
