Instructors

We are extremely happy to announce that Kelly Porter, Adam

Boehmer, and Charlie and Melissa Fuller will be teaching classes

during our exchange!

Adam K. Boehmer has been dancing for 9 years in the national

swing scene, gaining momentum as an entertaining instructor,

performer and educator. He has competed and placed in numerous

national level competitions and taught workshops across the country

in an attempt to keep an improvisational, raw swing style alive.

Kelly Porter: A review of Kelly’s last workshop from

dtownstomp.com read: “Not only were my legs broken, but my world

was rocked and my brain was 'sploded.” 97 pounds of caffeine-fueled

attack-dance, Kelly is a fool for everything to do with the music and

dances of the jazz era. She has been DJ’ing and jamming out to jazz

and blues for around 6 years, and has taught to acclaim both locally

and nationally.
