Carla Fri

Olof Englund

Carla (upside down in this photo) started dancing in the mid 2000s. She's also one of the founders of Ritz Lindy Hoppers, that organizes this event. The most important thing for her, her number one priority, when it comes to lindy hop is that it should be fun. It's all about enjoying the happy spirit of the dance. No matter what mood you're in when you go out to dance, you should always come home with a smile. This feeling of happiness and belonging is what Carla tries to focus on in her teaching style. She's also a skilled jazz singer, and focuses much on how the dance connects with the music.

Olof (Olle) has been dancing lindy hop since ca 2011. He's passionate about teaching and has been teaching both in Vaasa and currently with Swingskeppet in Åland (Ahvenanmaa). Olle's got a personal style and is all about experimenting and pushing your dancing towards new levels. He's got a pedagogical background and his classes are bound to be interesting, energetic and fun, a place where students can try new things in a safe space. Olle loves the social dance floor, so don't be shy to ask him for a dance!
