Meet Milwaukee's Rubik's Cube teacherIts just like getting natural intuition for how pieces move despite if Im looking at them or not, and you really cant get that without doing thousands upon thousands of solves," Edler said.For as long as he can remember, Edler has had a Rubik's Cube in his hand. His earliest memories with a cube date back to 4 years old. Ever since, he hasn't been able to put it down.This is one of the only things that I do where I genuinely think about nothing else while Im doing it, and its the only thing Im thinking about, and its one of the best feelings in the world," Edler said.His goal isn't to get a world record. Rather, hes helping others capture that same feeling he has with a Rubik's Cube in hand. Alex Bourbon, 13, is one of his students. Bourbon has shaved 10 seconds off his time thanks to Edler, going from about 30 seconds to 20 seconds. I think it really helped me want to learn more and learn from him, and I think that definitely got my times down," Bourbon said.The Rubik's Cube is one of the best-selling toys of all time, but since it came out in 1974, it has been looked upon as a niche hobby. Levi wants to make it mainstream and help people discover the magic of this timeless puzzle.Ideally, my goal is I just want people to love this cube as much as I have.To contact Edler, reach out to him via his website cubingmke.com.Its about time to watch on your time.
