Jam Circle @ the Savoy

nallakim — Thu, 29 Dec 2011 03:10:39 +0000

2-3 years ago, Jam circle was not common culture in Korea swing scenes. but, some of travelling lindyhoppers and instructors try to spread that lindyhop culture to Korean dancers …I know that there are still some of negative people who don’ t like Jam circle and hate super active dancers like me haha… But, I don’t care much about it.. because many dancers really enjoy jammin’ in the circle and clapping and stompin’ for the dancers… hope more korean dancers share their passioin of lindyhop and boast themselves in the Jam circle~! it make me inspired and I love it~!

Actually, this Jam circle was planned. and all dancers are instructors or advanced dancers. But, I had no plan doing some aerials and danced with two beautiful followers.. it just happened… I think most of them had no plan for the jam… Dancers energy and Jam circle’s cheering made it~!

1. Harlem Hot Shots – The Call Of The Lindy Hop

할렘핫샷은 사보이 스타일의 린디합을 가장 잘 재현하는 이시대의 최고의 팀중하나이다. 무엇이 린디합인지 묻는 사람이 있다면 이 영상을 추천한다

2. Lindyhop Classic Dax & Sarah @ ESDC 2011

화이티스 린디하퍼스의 A Day at the Races를 재현한 덱스와 사라! 그들의 아이디어도 연기도 일품이고 특히 사라의 성장이 엄청나게 느껴지는 영상

2nd place – All Star Lindy JnJ (Nalla & Teni) @ ILHC 2011

nallakim — Sun, 11 Sep 2011 07:58:34 +0000

Teni Lopez-Cardenas (http://www.tenilopez.com/)… She is an awesome lindyhop, balboa dancer and instructor. I met her at the Rhythmic Arts Festival 2007 (San Diego, CA) and met again at ILHC this year. she was one of the members of “23 Skidoo”. Now, she is one of the members of “Lindy Hopper’s Dozen” with Mike & Laura (Austin, TX). she won many competitions including Strictly Lindyhop @ RAF 2007, Team div @ ULHS 2007

Actually, I and Teni didn’t have many chances to dance with… so I worried about that… but it made me focus more on partner and music than my own moves. As you know, partnership is more important than fancy moves at Jack & Jill division… Her solid following and reaction made us winning 2nd place… Thank you again Teni~!
