Are there any local swing dancers in Essex or Suffolk who might be interested in private Lindy Hop or Solo Jazz classes?
I’m now teaching private classes in North Essex and wanted to put out feelers to see if there could be any interest in either private or semi-private classes.
You might be a beginner wanting to build confidence, an intermediate dancer looking to polish technique and musicality, or perhaps you’re preparing for a wedding dance or special event.
I’ve been teaching Lindy Hop in London for over 25 years and have been lucky enough to study with some of the most important figures in swing dance. I trained with original Lindy Hop dancers from the 1930s and 1940s including Frankie Manning, as well as world-renowned Masters Chazz Young, Chester Whitmore, Ryan Francois, and Strictly Come Dancing choreographer Jenny Thomas.
I was also a UK Lindy Hop Champion, tap danced for Fayard Nicholas, and had the privilege of assisting Frankie Manning.
My approach is very personalised and focuses on good technique, musicality, and helping people feel relaxed and confident on the dance floor.
If private lessons or a small semi-private class is something you’d be interested in, do drop me a message and I’ll look at logistics.
