Off to the Herrang Lindy Hop Dance Camp!

Posted on July 29, 2010 by

Spuds and Rikomatic in Herrang

Starting tomorrow night, I will be travelling to Sweden to participate in the Herrang International Swing Dance Camp, sort of the mecca for lindy hoppers.  Every year, a thousand or so swing dancers from all over the world make the pilgrimage to Herrang for a five-week celebration of dance, featuring workshops, dance parties, shows, and lots of fun socializing. 

This is my second time in Herrang, which unfortunately will be for only one week. Last time I had an absolute blast, and returned newly energized about this wonderful dance and the community that surrounds it.  There's really nothing else like it on earth.

I don't know what my internet situation is going to be like. So forgive me if this blog is pretty quiet during the next week.  If you don't hear from me, assume that I'm dancing!
