TARYN NEWBORNE , who started off in ballroom dance before finding swing and Lindy Hop, has combined her passions to become an amazing swing singer and band leader. She joined us to talk about her story, what a swing scene family is, and hopes for how we can emerge from the pandemic. Making a great record takes a lot of time, and, sadly, money.

    As an older person in the scene, who came to it late in life (so I'm not a respected "elder" dancer!), I can relate to this conversation, even though age (and the physical limitations that come with it) was not specifically discussed. Thank you for all your wonderful conversations!!

    Ahh!! Trust is so important. One of the worst moments of partnership I had was when someone spun me and walked away because they were rushing to join another part of the class. I was expecting a connection and counterbalance was abandoned. So much of this conversation resonates.

    And “say yes to what you have” is the thing I needed to hear. I haven’t been back to dancing more than a few times since COVID and a lot of it is lack of motivation about being out of shape, lack of endurance, more weight, more hurty knees, etc. but it’s something that brings me joy. A half dance of joy is better than no dance of joy so thanks for the encouragement.

    We need our own Lindy Hop dance scenes. Here you have a bunch of white people who are performing in predominantly black American cultural dance moves. But yet somehow someway they are intimidated by black people, that is odd!. But the fact is, we need our own Lindy Hop movement... It started with us, it should end with us..

    An extraordinary piece of dance history. In some of the clips, I assumed the female dancer was Irene Thomas, but turned out to be Jewel McGowan, who I wasn't aware of until looking at other YT material. I simply can't believe the energy of people of that era, and of course the astonishing dancers, named here with thanks, of Whitey's Lindy Hoppers in Hellzapoppin'. I'm deeply impressed. Thank you, Robert, UK.

I should have said "a lot of things were relatively acceptable to talk about among the general adult comedy audience..." or something to that affect. Still learning how to discuss these important topics!
