🌟 Meet Your Instructors:

Johannes Gustav found himself in his first swing dance lesson by a lucky chance back in 2012. He loved every minute of it and was hooked from the first steps and swinging tunes. He enjoys the social aspect, freedom and inspiring music in dancing. He also has been teaching Lindy Hop since 2014.

Katharina Matkevitš fell in love to Lindy Hop already from the first rock-step in and couldn’t imagine having any other day without swing music and dancing. From there on, she’s constantly searching for new ways to develop her dancing skills and dance vocabulary. Next to Lindy Hop, Katharina also dances Shag and Balboa, mastering her skills both as a leader and a follower. For Katharina, the most important aspect of dancing is to interpret the music. The second most important thing is to genuinely enjoy dancing from all of your heart so it can be reflected from the smile of your dancing partner.

Don't miss this chance to learn from these two!
