During a July 2025 interview with Forbes Magazine, Kosir revealed that he had never had a dance lesson before, which means he is a natural when it comes to dancing. In the interview, Kosir stated how it all started way back in 2019 when he was in the studio and began dancing. “Everyone loved it. I’d been trying stuff on social media for years and years, and I had some success, but the dancing thing really seemed to take off. Once you catch lightning in a bottle, it’s hard to keep it there, and I’ve been keeping it there for six years. I think the dancing and social media aspect of my brand helped me land this job at Fox Weather,” Kosir told the media publication.
Furthermore, Kosir also candidly spoke about his sobriety in his interview and mentioned how it benefited his dancing. Kosir added, “I never want to seem preachy, so I try to pick and choose my spots. Every year on my soberversary, I put a video out, and when I’m invited to talk on a podcast about sobriety, I always jump at the chance. And whenever I do [share] the DMs I get from people are eye-opening and mind-blowing. So many more so than on a dance video. What’s the point of having an account and a cache and a little bit of a platform if you can’t use it for the greater good?” When asked to give one advice to those who may be struggling, Kosir said, “Getting to the root of the problem is the number one key, really, to anything in life. It’s not going to be fun in the short term, but it will help immensely in the long term.”
