Learn how to lead and follow free spins, tuck turns and pop turns!


-Day 2 - Music Box Dancer

Let's slam it all together! We'll take time to bend the rules, experiment and workshop turns and variations!


So if you've got a taste for getting whirly, feel like challenging your equilibrium or want to get in touch with your inner dizz, then this is the class for you!

HEATHER-GRACE BACH is a dancer whose roots are in Musical Theatre. She first learned to swing dance at age 10 and has been swinging on and off ever since. She’s thrilled to bring her dance background to this turn technique series!

Heather-Grace is a proud mother of her cat, Ziegfeld!


NEIL FIGURACION (any pronouns) is an East Los Angeleno who has been teaching Lindy Hop and other swing dances since the Turn of the Century. Neil dabbled in modern, jazz, hip hop and ballet before learning from the legends of the world of Vernacular Jazz.


Fun Fact: The secret origin of this class was a rough time in the Gravitron at a local festival as a teenager.
