Description

Balboa Jazz Lindy Hop Rock & Roll Swing

I've always liked dancing, I always liked to dance in front of the reflection that was generated in the first floor where I lived in Buenos Aires. That was a long time ago. Life brought me to Madrid in June 2007; years later, rains, storms, snowfalls and incandescent sunshine came around in 2012 when a friend told me: "You have to dance Swing, you're going to like it a lot".

Following this advice I started my classes in Blanco y Negro Studio as a leader in the first year and in my second year also as a follower. My curiosity, desire to improve and training as a Swing teacher led me to Toulouse, where for 3 months I took classes with the whole Studio Hop team at Lindy Hop, Jazz Steps, Charleston, Balboa and Blues. When I came back from France I started teaching Lindy Hop, Charleston and Jazz Steps, and thanks to having learned both roles (leader/follower) I have great ease in teaching either one of them.

Today I am taking this new path with Silvia, Antón and Sara; I simply tell you "You have to dance Swing, you are going to like it very much".
