Lessons
West Coast Swing looks smooth and beautiful, and you, too, can achieve that effect if you take some lessons. Private lessons with the highest talent you can afford are the best way to raise your dance and increase your fun.
Houston is damn lucky to have more than its fair share of incredible award-winning teachers in the greater metro area, and I encourage you to seek any of these worthies out. You can tell the good ones cuz they make their living teaching you how to get better.

Mario Robau: Needs no introduction. Mario has won everything that is important to win, twice. He has weekly group lessons in town. He’s available for privates. He’s one of the pros that the pros go to improve their own dancing, which pretty much tells you everything you need to know. Visit him at www.MarioSwingDaddy.com
John Lindo: a living legend in swing, and likely the dancer with the most Jack n Jill placements. Lindo may not be in the city much, but when he is, he’s booked. So plan ahead and take some lessons from the guy who can make anyone look good on the dance floor. Visit him at www.JohnLindo.com
