YOUR TEACHERS
LEIGH RICHARDS is one of Brisbane’s (even Australia’s) most experienced follow teachers. An absolute powerhouse as a Lindy Hop and Balboa dancer (former Australian Balboa Champion!) but, more than anything, she is cherished for her fun and almost goofy classes. Leigh brings her infectious humour and wraps that up with her incredible technical dance knowledge.

KAHL SCHEMIONECK may be the only man who can frame a house and a perfect swingout in the same afternoon. By day, he’s a builder—measuring twice, cutting once. By night, he trades his tool belt for dance shoes and teaches swing like it’s a structural masterpiece. He believes everything in life can be fixed with either a hammer or better timing—and honestly, he’s not wrong. Miss a step? That’s just a “renovation opportunity.” Bad posture? “We’ll shore up those foundations.” Can’t find the beat? He’ll probably try to measure it. Students love him for his patience, and the way he says things like, “Let’s build this move from the ground up,” as if you’re about to pour concrete instead of do a swingout.
