Rebecca Brouwers
Rebecca has loved dancing from an early age and can’t stop grooving if there’s a good beat going. After a few years without dancing she started lindy hopping at university after trying to find an open welcoming dance class, to get those feet moving again! Once her partner Adam discovered Collegiate Shag she got swept along by his enthusiasm and quickly fell in love with it too. Rebecca loves to sprinkle her classes with joy and grooviness, along with a good pinch of technique, and (like Adam) is particularly keen on encouraging more people to dance both Collegiate and St Louis Shag.
Adam Harries
Adam has played jazz for many years, but it was only at university (at the suggestion of Rebecca), that he tried dancing to it. Together, they checked out the “Lindy Hop” and have been hooked on swing dance ever since. After a chance encounter at a swing festival in 2015, Adam also discovered Collegiate Shag, and very quickly fell in love with it. Adam loves mixing technicality and musicality in his classes, and is particularly keen on spreading the good word of SHAG – both Collegiate, and more recently, St Louis.
