Introducing the REVIVED 2014 Zen of Dance!

After a four-year hiatus (yes, my mother's illness and passing dragged me through the mud the last few years), I am proud to announce the return of the Zen of Dance. A lot has happened in the last four years in our swing dance world, including many new friends and students joining the Got2Lindy classes and the ever-expanding Hudson Valley Swing Dance Network.  Let's just say we've been very busy. Please enjoy the archives on this site, which contains very valuable information about learning to swing dance that doesn't ever get stale.

And here are just 10 quick highlights from recent times:

1. We sold out performances at the SPIEGELTENT for three years in a row.

 On Thursday, August 14 we return. Mark your calendars.

2. We had amazing classes as the head swing dance teachers at the 2014 Dance Flurry Festival in Saratoga





3. We taught on a Holland America Cruise Ship through Asia and the South Pacific for 75 days during September, October, November and December of 2013.

4. I published an article about how I changed my life by leaving the corporate world and becoming a swing dance teacher. READ THE ARTICLE

5. We had a huge number of amazing choreography by the wonderful Chester Freeman performed by our amazing students.




6. We taught and danced at dozens of events including the Chronogram Block Party
7. We raised over $6000 for Haiti soon after the earthquake with a HOP FOR HAITI Swing Dance with such incredible guests as Dawn Hampton.


8. We had a whole cabin full of students join us at Swing Out New Hampshire, where I was the SWOGA Teacher (Yoga for Swing Dancers).
9. We had a radio show for three years The Swing Shift and debuted a seven episode TV series on Swing Dance available for viewing at http://www.pandatv23.org/ 

10. WE TAUGHT HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE HOW TO DANCE AND WE HAD A BLAST DOING IT! Join us as we continue the fun into the new year! And be sure to follow the all-new ZEN OF DANCE.
