I started dancing seriously when I was 14 years old... my mother was an accomplished dancer and taught me the rudiments of Ballroom dancing. The dancing bug bit me and very soon I was into 'proper' dance classes three or four times a week... using the money that I had earned doing my 'paper round' at the local newsagents. After a few years I reached medal standard. In my late teens and early twenties I competed in Ballroom and Latin competitions in the South-West of the UK with some small success... I was fortunate to also dance at some of the BBC 'Come Dancing' series venues and at the glorious Tower Ballroom in Blackpool. I have been dancing to Ballroom and Latin most of my adult life and never made any secret of the fact that this genre of dancing is my first love.

In the year 2000 I was introduced to Line dancing by my wife Glenys who had been doing this for about a year on her own... unfortunately in 1999 I had to give up all dancing for over a year whilst I recovered from heart surgery.. it was a terrific blow to me not being able to dance for that length of time... but I had to get fit again before I could dance to my normal routines.

So... I added yet another string to my dancing bow... and very soon I was bitten again by another bug!... the Line Dancing one.

In 2003 after a lot of pressure from fellow dancers I started to look into the art of choreography. I was given a piece of music by Diane Sykes of Di'Mond Spurs to work on... and less than one week later I had choreographed some basic dance steps... and published my first line dance... 'I FELL' and the rest, as they say, is history.

I have now choreographed over 100 dances to date... and I am now concentrating on writing to Latin music... mostly with Internationally recognised rhythms from the Ballroom floor... the ones that I love to dance.

Gordon Timms has choreographed 105 dances, of which 9 have been co-choreographed. Their first published stepsheet on CopperKnob is Leave Me All Alone from October 2007, with their most recent stepsheet of Jealous Guy in September 2022.
