Last night, we had a modest but fun celebration to fete the ninth anniversary of Yehoodi.com, the lindy hop/ swing dance community website that I help run.  Instead of our usual blowout party weekends, we just expanded our regular Thursday night Frim Fram dance into a Yehoodi 9th anniversary party with a second dance floor, five DJs, and an enormous cake.  We had about 225 of our best friends there, but sadly Yehoodi admins Frankyboy and Spuds were not able to join us.

It’s a great feeling knowing that for almost a decade that Yehoodi has played an important role in supporting and growing the lindy hop movement into the strong, global community that it is today.  We’ve got big big plans for our tenth anniversary that emphasize the global reach of lindy hop and swing jazz.  But for now, I’m just basking in the warmth of the congratulations and good vibes from our awesome party last night.
