featuring instructors…
Hannah Taylor
Hannah began swing dancing in 2009, after years of training in ballet, jazz, and modern dance. A love of jazz music and a desire to continue dancing led her to her first swing dance class with the Trinity University Swing Bums. A continuous learner, she has traveled nationally and internationally to expand her understanding of swing. She enjoys a playful solo dance almost as much as partner dancing. As a teacher, she is keen on encouraging her students to find themselves in the dance, to understand the mechanics to make movements feel natural and connected, and - above all - to enjoy themselves. She is on the board and teaches regularly with the San Antonio Swing Dance Society.
Lon Nix
Lon started swing dancing in 2021 to prepare for his sister’s wedding, and quickly fell in love with it! He teaches at his local scene, the Austin Swing Syndicate, and has traveled near and far... (as far as Australia) to participate in Lindy Hop events.
