Matt Steffanina is an American choreographer, producer and entrepreneur. He has worked with many big name superstars including dance videos and stage performances. The effort he put into the dance earned him fame and recognition and probably most importantly, love. Her relationship with Dana Alexa has been making a lot of noise, so I’d like to take a look at what’s and isn’t about the two.
Matt Steffanina’s Bio
Born in Virginia on October 20, 1986, MattSteffanina grew up wanting to play sports. In his early years he was involved in competitive snowboarding and continued to do so into adulthood. Steffanina is a definition of someone who has been able to build from the ground up.
His interest in dancing peaked during his teenage years, he spent a lot of time with his best friend learning how to dance. These exercises lasted about six years. After playing for a while on the East Coast, he moved to Los Angeles to make a career there. His early work in Virginia began with b-boying, participating in local shows, he even had the opportunity to lead the “University of Virginia” dance team.
After arriving in Los Angeles, Steffanina’s talent did not escape the throngs of star performers who roamed her streets. He started appearing on many shows like The Ellen Show, Step Up and a host of others. He also has many impressive partnerships, including with Snoop Dogg, Wiz Khalifa, Taylor Swift, and Krewalla, among others. Prior to 2016, Steffanina was a well-known choreographer but when he won The Amazing Race in 2016, his profile rose to international status. He has also been invited to perform at major dance events such as World Dance LA.
Besides his big projects, Steffanina is also involved in sharing his knowledge with dance lovers and contemporary colleagues.

Her time in the spotlight came to choreograph on Bravo’s Watch What Happens Live and The Real Housewives of New Jersey. Alexa was a winner of The Amazing Race on CBS in its 28th season. She also has a large following online with nearly 500,000 followers on Instagram, 23,000 on Facebook and 78,000 on Twitter. YouTube is not exempt as it boasts of having 300,000 subscribers to its YouTube channel.
Matt Steffanina met Dan Alexa in 2011 on the set of a music video titled “Ashes”. After that first meeting, the pair began dating for about a year before getting engaged in 2012. While still engaged, Matt and Dana became winners of CBS’ The Fantasy Race taking home the $1 million prize. It looks like Matt was ready to tie the knot, as he’s revealed on multiple occasions.
Matt raised his fans’ expectations in 2013 when he wrote on social media that he would be getting married in October 2014. During an interview in March 2016, the pair were asked about a honeymoon destination and Matt described his ideas as ‘something relaxing’ with a beach and even said, ‘Maldives looks nice’.
Is she his wife or his girlfriend?
The couple looked cute together but ultimately looks like it wasn’t meant to be. Dana had demonstrated a fit on a reality TV show and yelled at Matt. The reaction on social media was intense and it looks like the relationship cannot survive this episode. Steffanina’s relationship with Alexa was serious and he had his girlfriend and fiancée at the time, but that relationship never evolved into marriage.
