Los organizadores y promotores necesitan bios, fotos y videos para sus materiales promocionales. En vez de mandar un paquete enorme y cruzar los dedos, esto está aquí para que elijas lo que funcione para tu marca y tu estilo. Todo lo que ves es material que yo mismo elegí y con el que estoy contento.

Blurb Bio

Nicholas believes partner dancing is one of the best things a person can do for themselves and their community. Teaching since 2009, swing dancing is his 3rd career as dance teacher. The continued enjoyment and promotion of dance for all is what brings him back to teaching year after year.

Short General Bio

He started instructing ballroom, transitioned to Argentine Tango (won the US Championships), then stumbled into swing where he ended up winning a few Lindy, Shag, and Balboa competitions and coaching a team along the way. After a pandemic detour into other projects and then some world traveling, he's back to dancing and teaching in places like Japan, Korea, Lithuania, Germany, and California. He believes partner dancing is one of the best things a person can do for themselves and their community.

Short Shag Bio

Hi Shaggers! I started Collegiate Shag working with Julie Roman in 2018 and I've been hooked ever since. Shag fingers, collegiate kicks, and the amazing warm community have all become a huge part of my dance life. I enjoy bringing a subtlety and texture to shag, blending precision and exuberance. My current goal is to contribute to shag by expanding the lead and follow of rhythms and shapes. Dance has always been a way for me to connect, grow, and share joy with others. Come say hi!
