Ben and Helen started dancing in 2000 in Melbourne, Australia and saw each other across a crowded dance floor. Sounds cheesy, and it is, but it was the beginning of a fabulous partnership. Over the years they’ve explored their passion for swing dance in many different ways and we have danced their way to Edinburgh via Japan and Sweden. Given Ben’s years of Kung Fu training and Helen’s background in gymnastics, it’s no wonder these guys specialize in dips, tricks and aerials and have taught many to fly at major UK dance camps over the years.

Now based in Edinburgh and founders of Zoot Swing in 2005, they teach weekly swing, blues and solo Charleston classes are sought after regularily to teach around the UK and think up all sorts of exciting dance events (like this one ).

They are very proud to bring you Scotland Swing Storm and endeavour to bring people together through the love of swing dancing, because you never know who you might see across that dance floor!
