Dave and Charlie

After dedicating his life to traveling the world to teach Lindy Hop and Blues partner dancing for over a decade, dancing paid him back with finding him the love of his life, Charlie.

Charlie herself was already well established as a modern and hip hop dancer, trained musician and yoga instructor, and she fell in love with both Dave and partner dancing upon meeting.

They have combined forces, taking Dave's thorough understanding of connection, momentum and musicality in partner dancing and Charlie's exquisite understanding of movement, music and anatomy. This synergy of their perspectives on movement has created an entirely new level of understanding of the dance that they share with their students.

Dave's sense of humor and Charlie's warmth create a playful environment which will not only engage their students but also help them connect with the material on a deeper level.
