Selection of board members

Here is a list of our board members and wishes and intend for the upcoming year:

• Carit has decided to step back from the board. Carit is the treasurer and has been a board member for several years. He has been a huge driving force of SwingShoes and will be missed on the board. Carit will be hanging around in the wings and effectively transfer his knowledge to the new board and the new treasurer.
• Ea, Patrizia, and Thomas are all open to continuing but would also welcome fresh energy. If you’ve been thinking about getting involved in shaping SwingShoes, this is a great opportunity — and they’d be happy to make room for new members with ideas and time to invest.
• Trine was on the board and stepped out in the fall of 2025. She did an amazing job in the period she contributed — and now she’s teaching blues, so she’s obviously still around.
• Per was an alternate member and became a board member in the fall of 2025. Per is extremely active teaching, and he’s on the front line for the boogie woogie movement, which is growing every day.
• Zeth wishes to continue on the board. He will try to invest his energy in fewer projects, so there will be more building and less juggling. Zeth is considering taking the role as treasurer after Carit, unless someone else has a burning desire to do so.

Interested in being on the board?

Zeth will try to visit the different classes and have a chat with you members over the next weeks to see if we have some future board members out there with a bit of time to invest and some exciting ideas for SwingShoes.

If you are considering this, please write an email to info@swingshoes.dk with your thoughts, and we’ll get back to you.
