Ben Taffner

Workshop host, my true self

I'm a lindy hop dancer and organizer of a dance community!

Everyday, when I get up I'm again surprised how strong the dancing is connected with the real life,....cause it is my real life! :-)

For me the lindy hop and all the culture around the dance changed my life completely.

As a dancer you travel around a lot to dance, work and connect with people.

In my workshop I will present the dance and the philosophy behind. I could talk hours and hours about that, but lets do this together in April...so here only a few words that move me in the context of the workshop, that will be a mix of dancing and talking:

- living as a dancer

- music, rhythm and dance to swing music

- improvisation and expression as one of the most important skills in the dance

- communication with yourself, your partner and the music

- connection physically and mentally

 

My motto: "Ouh Yeah!"

“If you assume that there is no hope, you guarantee that there will be no hope. If you assume that there is an instinct for freedom, that there are opportunities to change things, then there is a possibility that you can contribute to making a better world.”
