Teachers

After years of lindy hop Janet and Chris each discovered balboa and became addicted. Janet is well-known for her footwork and her “follower voice”. She loves inspiring dancers of all levels and helps dancers to find their own individual style within the dance. She is brilliant at making the dance approachable, with a supportive and interactive style of teaching. Chris has wonderful musicality and can explain just what is needed to make the dance flow beautifully while having fun with your partner! They can explain the basics really clearly and also stretch and inspire the most advanced dancers.
