Family Life
Paul lives with his mum, dad and sister. The Culshaws are a close family and were ecstatic when he made it through.
Got to Dance
Paul first started dancing when he was 14. He still attends Linedancing and Street Dancing classes. Paul studied Performing Arts at Wigan and Leigh College. He then went to Salford University. He has received training in Street, Freestyle Disco, Contemporary, Jazz and a bit of ballet.
His Partner
Paul made his first appearance on series one with his original partner Suzanne. They made it through to the Live Auditions last year but they were knocked out after the public vote.
Paul and Suzanne auditioned for series two in Manchester, but only Paul made it through. He felt Suzanne was the stronger dancer but he is thrilled to be partnered with fellow chatterbox Aravon.
Living in the Mansion
The thing Paul will miss most when in the Dance Mansion is lie ins! He can't wait to get into the Mansion and is excited about experiencing the variety of dance styles. His only fear is the thought of letting his dance partner down.
Going Live
Paul has high hopes for himself and Aravon, he believes that if they do themselves justice each week, then it is possible they could be victorious.
Dance Idols
Paul's dance tutors at college, Michaela Anders and Sally Ann Saidy, are his biggest influences. He also thinks Usher is an amazing dancer.
