30 Week Lindy Hop Challenge: Your Swing Crushes / Favorite Pros

28.09.2012 by Chris

Every Friday for thirty weeks, I will write about a topic from the list of the
“30 Week Lindy Hop Challenge“.

This week, we're talking about..

Week #12: Favorite Pros

My first thought about Swing crushes was: “Come on, I'm not twenty anymore.”

I know, I know, having crushes is not about age. Anyways, I wouldn't write about it.

So, let's talk about favorite pros.

Here is my list:

Nick Williams

I guess, Nick influences my dancing more than any other person. With his style and his unique musicality he's always been a big inspiration.

Laura Keat & Jeremy Otth

Both are very likable and awesome dancers. They are not afraid of taking a masterpiece of dancing and recreate it. Spectacular!

Kelly Arsenault & Mickey Fortanasce

The two of them preserve the heritage of the old-time Balboa dancers and add their own style to it. Always able to push the boundaries again and again.

Maeva Truntzer & William Mauvais

Maeva & William are presenting a new generation of swing dancers. Original and hilarious. With this routine they captured my heart immediately.
