I'm a London-based Lindy Hop and authentic jazz instructor. I teach weekly classes and workshops with Swing Patrol — most regularly at the Angel venue — together with my regular teaching partner, Liane Wergen, and I travel across the UK and Europe to teach at festivals and weekenders such as Harbour Hop and Swing It Berlin.
I teach Lindy Hop, authentic (solo) jazz, Charleston and partner work — from your very first steps to dynamic partner tricks. My focus is on musicality, connection, and keeping partner dancing fun and accessible whatever your level.
Class breakdowns, recaps and tutorials, wherever you are:
Thursday solo jazz is back from 10 September, taught by Liane Wergen.
| Day | Class | Time | Where |
|---|---|---|---|
| Monday | Lindy Hop & Swing — Levels 1–3 | 7:00–10:30pm | Swing Patrol Angel, Exmouth Market |
| Thursday | Solo Jazz — open level From 10 Sept · Liane only | 7:00–9:00pm | Steps Studios, Shoreditch |
Curious what we dance to? I keep my swing jazz listening sorted by tempo, from slow and stretchy to Hellzapoppin' fast, along with the playlists I use in class.
Swing playlists by tempoIf you'd rather see it than read about it: clips of Liane and me competing, and recaps filmed in class so you know what the room looks like before you turn up.
