Our teachers
-
Niomi
Niomi discovered Lindy Hop after a car crash forced her to find gentler movement than climbing. For her, it’s self-expression, freedom, and community. She loves seeing students let go and show their true selves through dance, gaining confidence and joy!
-
-
Cecilie
Cecilie started swing dancing for exercise and fun, but Balboa quickly stole her heart. She sees teaching as mutual learning where both teacher and student grow together. For her, swing is a wordless language of self-expression and connection.
-
Libor
Libor discovered Lindy Hop in 2017 at DTU’s dance club while writing his master’s thesis and got hooked instantly. It’s community, personal growth, and jazz music combined. He loves sharing his passion and seeing students get equally hooked. A Duke Ellington fan who values the social aspect most!
-
Emilie
Emilie discovered swing at a 2023 Studenterhuset social and became instantly obsessed. For her, swing is pure freedom and flow—a living piece of cultural history where every dance creates a unique, shared moment. She loves helping dancers grow and gain confidence.
-
Isabella
Isabella went to a Lindy social in 2013 but found blues instead—Christoffer Johansson’s live music stuck in her head. It’s freedom and active listening. She loves exploring a shared language in music. Fan of Brother Yusef, she values community over hierarchy!
