Elise started dancing when she was five. She learnt several dances like modern’Jazz and funk before settling for couple dances. She first fell in love with lindy hop because of the joy and craziness that it brought her. Rija discovered ballroom dancing when he was fifteen and hasn’t stopped dancing ever since. He has since then taught in several cities in France and he is a major actor of the lindy hop scene in Paris. They now teach at many festivals in France and also abroad (Berlin, Poland, Italy …).

When dancing, they have this special connection switching energies, from release to accelerations. They will do their best to pass on musicality, groove and improvisation in order for you to have a blast on the social dance floor.

Erin is a champion solo jazz dancer, celebrated lindy hop artist, and a working jazz musician. She is a formidable improviser and spirited partner, able to draw upon a wealth of musical knowledge and vernacular dance movement. Since 1999 she has taught, performed, and competed around the world. Clément has been dancing for seven years swing and is the founder of Swing Base in Berlin. His focus is to find a balance between the origins of Lindy Hop and the creation of new movements to make his own dance!

Steph found the Lindy Hop in 2010, and was immediately taken with it’s beauty and rhythm. Starting out in Auckland New Zealand, she travelled back and forth to Australia and felt the inspiration bloom from new and different dancers. Her ballet background & her great feeling for rhythm will definitely inspire you for your Solo Jazz!
