Style: Lindy Hop/Swing Dance
Dance Instructors: Nalla Kim & Jessica Yoon
DJ: Ryan Swift

The impact of swing dance has reverberated around the world. Few countries have taken to swing quite like South Korea, where the cultural bridge uniting the United States dates back to the '90s. Swing culture has erupted today into a bona fide sensation, with multiple swing clubs open to all hours in Seoul and the nation's leading swing dancers are regarded as heroes. Eight of Korea's most talented artists have band together to form K-Swing Wave, the pinnacle of Korea's swing movement. Curated by Caleb Teicher, one of New York’s finest Lindy Hop dancers and choreographers, K-Swing’s live show is a dynamic presentation of authentic jazz and Lindy Hop infused with Korean cultural influences through cutting-edge choreography and improvisation. Witness history in the making as the exceptional members of K-Swing Wave redefine the boundaries of tradition and innovation. Arrive early for a participatory dance lesson and you too will be jumping and jiving with the stars!
