It's run by the South East London Lindy Hop Club on Thursday nights. They seem to belong to a group called 52nd Street Jump who operate in London, Surrey and Sussex............ |
It is run by Caron & Steve (they are engaged - getting married in Jan 2008)
Caron is an ex-ceroc dancer, then turned to Lindy and used to 'taxi' for Simon Selmon. She met Steve a couple of years ago and they teamed up for teaching and dances. Steve learned 'jitterbugs / 40's swing' with Nick Kirby in Coulsden.
As you have said they are a friendly bunch, not quite pure Lindy, more 40's style but still good fun.
