Limited places, individual registration possible. We will maintain a waiting list to ensure a balanced leader/follower ratio.

Ada Gori

Ada discovered swing dancing in 2018 and hasn’t stopped since. Her fascination with music and partner dancing took her all over Italy and abroad, starting in the city of Bologna, where she took her first jazz steps and began teaching in 2021. Her classes are always filled with laughter and strike a balance between technical suggestions and social dance-friendly ideas and values. She started with Lindy Hop and Solo Jazz and quickly became passionate about Collegiate Shag and curious about Balboa. One more dance won’t hurt, right?

Clara Bauer

Clara took her first dance steps at an early age in the theater and danced in musical productions during and after her school years. She came across swing dancing by chance and was immediately enthusiastic about it and its open community. Right from the start, she was particularly enthusiastic about energetic, fast-paced dances such as shag and boogie, for which she enjoys taking long train and bus journeys to travel to festivals and dance scenes all over Europe. 

Due to her background as a musician, musicality in the dance and the musical background of swing are particularly close to her heart. She loves to work with lots of people who enjoy music and dancing and is happy to spend as much time on the social dance floor as possible.

Clara was winner of the Mix&Match Competition at Augsburg Shag Weekend 2024 and we are happy to welcome her as teaching partner of Ada Gori for this Intensive.
