Teachers
Professional swing dancer, instructor and choreographer, Moe has won numerous international competitions, including the world's biggest Jack 'n Jill competition at Frankie '95 and she had the honour to be inducted into the Camp Hollywood Hall of Fame in 2017. She has also danced for several theatre, television and film productions and co-founded the award winning jazz dance troupe "The Five Non-Blondes". She is much in demand internationally as a Balboa teacher and performer (as well as for LindyHop and Shag) and constantly endeavours to recreate an authentic style and to be true to the spirit of the dance as it was back in the day. We are thrilled that she will be sharing her passion and expertise with us.
After a fortuitous injury, Louis decided to try out swing dancing classes to help him recover. He instantly fell in love with swing and hasn't looked back. After spending 5 years learning and travelling to dance Lindy Hop, Balboa caught Louis' eye and what started out as a curiosity quickly turned into a passion for this magical dance! He is a regular in international balboa competitions.
