Greg Player

Greg has been a keen dancer since the age of seventeen. Proficient in many disciplines of Ballroom, he has gained achievements of Gold Latin, Silver Ballroom and Silver New Vogue. In the last ten years Greg has found his passion in Swing Dancing when the resurgence of Swing first hit Perth.

Greg has attended many Lindy Exchanges in Melbourne, Sydney, Lismore and Perth, and taught Collegiate Shag at Auckland Lindy Exchange and Adelaide's Camp Oz. He has also had the privilege to learn from Frankie Manning during both visits to Perth.

Greg loves the variety of Swing styles - Balboa, Collegiate Shag and Lindy Hop, and the wonderful tunes of the 30's and 40's Swing era. For Greg, Swing allows the dancer to be playful, creative, and have fun while embracing the wild culture. Greg enjoys and values the social and friendly nature of the Swing scene, and is always happy to share his passion with those new to the dance.

Through teaching Swing, Greg hopes people can enjoy the exuberant feeling of releasing their inhibitions while dancing to a wide variety of Swing music and meeting like minded people world wide.
