Bobby White & Kate Hedin teach Lindy Hop (slow, medium, fast, & "hand-to-hand combat"), Balboa, Collegiate Shag, dips, tricks, aerials & more. They also teach such classic swing jazz dances as the Big Apple, Dean Collin's Shim Sham, Sausages, Jitterbug Stroll, Tranky Doo, & other vernacular jazz routines.
In their classes they stress comfort, musicality, play-time, appearance, and the avid use of deodorant when going out dancing. For lesson information, see the classes page.
