Instructors so far are:
Nina Gilkenson http://www.andyandnina.com/aboutus.php
Lindy Hopper. Belly dancer. Hair-removal Laser Technician. The mysterious figure that is known only as "Nina" (and sometimes "Naomi") has many titles from prestigious dance competitions. But that's only a small part of her accomplishments. For instance, she can swivel in midair. She can simultaneously create vintage-style dresses and then destroy them while dancing. She can make 12-minute biscuits in 10 minutes. She writes upbeat musical theatre involving funeral homes. And last, but not least, she is a part of the award-winning Lindy Hop team the Silver Shadows, which sounds like it's a group of super heroes. And that's what she is. A Super Hero--one whose main super power is doing swivels in midair. And one day, they might save the world. Until then, she lives in Washington D.C. and falls down a lot.
Nina is also a co-organizer of The International Lindy Hop Championships, one of the largest swing dance competitions in the world.
In addition, Nina co-owns The Mobtown Ballroom, a beautiful ballroom in Baltimore's Pigtown neighborhood.
Mikey Pedroza http://mikeypedroza.com/
Mikey Pedroza is a professional swing dancer, instructor, and performer based in Orange County, California. He travels the world spreading his love for classical American Jazz Dances such as Lindy Hop, Charleston, Balboa, Solo Jazz, Blues and Slow Drag.
