SwinG'Amann is back for it’s third edition!!!

Skye & Frida

Frida has been dancing since her early childhood. Her very first dance interest was Swedish folk dances and Swedish Bugg and later moved on to Boogie Woogie. She also attended a three year dance dance high school focusing on modern and contemporary jazz dance and ballet. Training and competing brought her to Herräng Dance Camp where she was exposed to Lindy hop on the social dance floor for the first time and she fell head over heels in love with the music and the dance, finding a freedom of expression she had never felt before. From that point she was hooked and has never looked back. She joined the performance group The Rhythm Hot Shots, now known as The Hot Shots, a celebration of Harlem rhythms, for 15 years.
There she got the opportunity to work hard, learning and performing a broad spectrum of the African American dances she loves such as Lindy Hop, solo jazz, charleston and tap. She feels incredibly happy and humble that she has had the opportunity to travel the world performing, teaching, competing and sharing her passion for this artform for the last 20 years.

Skye was first persuaded to dance Lindy Hop by his mother in 1996, but quickly discovered his own love of social dancing, swing music and the Lindy Hop community. This led him to a wider interest in dance and he took classes in ballet, modern, and Jazz. Since 1999 he has taught wherever Lindy Hop is done- from national weekends to international dance camps. He is a founding member of some the most influential modern Lindy Hop troupes- including Minnie’s Moochers, Mad Dog, and the Silver Shadows. Skye has also won titles at all of the major Lindy Hop competitions- including ULHS, ILHC, ALHC and the World Lindy Hop Championships.

Simon & Ari

Ari and Simon are swing dance teachers, performers and choreographers. They are passionate about Lindy Hop and Authentic Jazz, especially in the context of their cultural traditions, their values and their place as an artform. Working together since 2016, they are now based in Madrid working globally as well as growing their online platform through Patreon. They are an energetic and rhythmical couple who love the interplay between the individual, the music and the partner during a dance and how it can develop into a beautiful conversation.

They hold titles from the International Lindy Hop Championships, The Savoy Cup and The Korean Lindy Hop Championships, among others. Their passion for the dance and the culture of swing has grown with them and is something they constantly strive to develop and express, whether in classes, on stage or in competition.

Nicolas & Alina

And the last detail, the pinch of salt in the mixture of butter and caramel – the third couple of teachers: Nicolas and Alina. Classes with them – a fascinating blend of French charm and Slavic austerity – are ultimately a joyful encounter, where everyone laughs and feels free to express themselves. Smiles and passion are always there, they like to share their knowledge in a relaxed and good mood.

We can count on Alina and her love of rigor to keep the cours serious, and on the historical digressions of Nico (graduate in history) to travel and learn while having fun! They had the opportunity to teach together “at home” (in France and Belarus), but also abroad, where they both won prizes in competitions, separately and as a couple. Many years of experience across Europe and the discovery of different visions, techniques and teaching methods strengthen their partnership, enrich it, and constantly inspire them for new projects.
