Tanja & Kay
Introducing Tanja and Kay, two Swing- and Authentic Jazz dancers from Helsinki, Finland! 🇫🇮
Tanja started her Lindy Hop journey while on exchange in Ljubljana in 2014 and continued her new passion during further exchanges in Montpellier and Madrid (yes, she did 3 Erasmus exchanges…). In 2017, Tanja started teaching and never stopped since. Her biggest fascination in the dance is the music, and she is constantly on the hunt for new, wonderful tunes. People usually agree that her dancing is very elegant. In reality, she is a huge goofball who always tries to make her dance partner smile.
Kay was first introduced to Lindy Hop in 2014 while living in Bern, Switzerland. Soon after, he moved to Stockholm, which is where he truly discovered his passion for this dance, heavily influenced by the vibrant Swedish Lindy spirit. Later on, Kay started teaching in the Netherlands, before moving to Finland and starting to teach together with Tanja. To him, moving is pure joy, which is visible in his athletic style and the big smile he tends to have while dancing.
Tanja and Kay are known for their energetic and fast-paced classes, placing value on musical context and history, and we can’t wait to have them join us at Swing Brother, Swing this year!
