Elle Brenecki
As a child, Elle was already dancing to anything she could get her hands on from Modern Jazz to Ukrainian Folk Dance. When she discovered Lindy Hop in her hometown of Adelaide, Australia, there was no turning back and her classes truly display her passion and joy for the dance. Elle loves to encourage freedom of expression as well as the conversational/improvisational dynamic within both Lindy Hop and solo dance. She strives to empower students in exploring their own unique identities in movement and to simply feel and enjoy the music as authentically as possible.

Becky Tomas
Lindy hop is a dance of improvisation, creativity & self expression, and helping people to find their own unique way to dance brings me great pleasure. Sharing my knowledge of dance is a great joy - I love to see how students flourish & develop during classes. I discovered Lindy hop in my hometown of Plymouth, in the Westcountry of England, 15 years ago, and was addicted immediately to the pure joy and energy that the dance brings.

DJ SuperHeidi
Heidi:
"Let’s keep it short & sweet: I’m here for all your swingin’ pleasure, to make you sweat, put that happy grin on your face and not allowing your feet a rest.
If you heard my tunes at my stompin' ground in Rotterdam or elsewhere (like Snowball, Lindy Shock, Herräng, Lindy Focus, All Balboa Weekend, Balboa Castle Camp) you know I’m having all the fun in DJ-ing for any kind of swing dancer.
My music tastes are pretty broad (try me!), but tell you what, the 1930s were really exciting!"
