Bobby White & Kate Hedin teach Lindy Hop, Balboa, Collegiate Shag, dips, tricks, aerials & more,
with the goal of giving a personal twist to the spirit of the original dancers. They also teach
such classic swing jazz dances as the Big Apple, Dean Collin's Shim Sham, Tranky Doo, & other
vernacular jazz routines.
In their classes they stress comfort, musicality, creativity, appearance, and the avid use of
deodorant. For lesson information, see the classes page.

Northeast Balboa Corridor
"The Northeast Balboa Corridor is our name for the combined Balboa scenes of Washington–Baltimore, Philadelphia and New York City. By themselves, each is relatively small with only one or two Balboa dances per month and a few classes. But together—each city is within two hours of the next in a string along route 95—there is a Balboa dance almost every week and a range of regular classes and workshops taught by some of the top instructors in the world!
From their beginnings these scenes have been highly supportive of one–another. The goal of the Northeast Balboa Corridor project is simply to promote that relationship by giving it a name, providing a central resource for information on events and coordinating car–pools along the corridor (see 'Recent News' below), and hopefully expanding the range of dancers who consider themselves part of this wider community and willing to travel and support events in the neighboring cities."
