Andrew Blechynden

Andrew has been what he calls ‘casually’ breaking/bboying/”breakdancing” since 2004, and teaching it for the past 3 years. In 2009 when he promised a friend he’d come and check out a swing dancing class he didn’t know what to expect, but he hasn’t looked back since. Finding in swing the same type of street dance feel you get with breaking (only about 50 years earlier), Andrew found another dance he could be passionate about and decided he wanted more. So when he was asked to join the Swing Zing teaching team he was keen and ready to take on board the challenge. Andrew is currently trying to blend his two dance styles together, working on a top secret Bboy/hip-hop shim sham.
