They started swing dancing as a sophomore at UC Berkeley in 2012, fell in love immediately, and for better or worse, started teaching their peers in 2013. Since graduating in 2015, they've performed in teams across California with UC Berkeley students and across the country with Shimmytown, as well as taught monthly series and special workshops at local venues across the Bay Area. They love making dances feel like magic, empowering everyone to bring their whole selves to every dance, and reading everything about jazz that they can get their hands on. Isaac Garfinkle is a Lindy Hop and Jazz dancer based in San Francisco. He started dancing at Carleton College, but quickly found his home in the local scene in Minneapolis. Since then, he's placed in contests all over the country, and has continuously taught at local venues in the Bay Area since moving there in 2017. He loves finding new ways to move, making even the most difficult shapes feel as good as possible, and getting students as excited about rhythm and momentum as he is.
