We have an incredible line-up of instructors this year and we'd like to highlight them as the event approaches.
Our first set of featured instructros are Dax Hock and Sarah Breck. Last year they were finalist on Paula Abdul's Dance Show Live to Dance. But they have been famous in the Lindy Hop world for years. Check out this short clip of their dancing on Live to Dance!
