Jive Swing Residency
In July 2007 Dance in Herts worked with Joseph and Trisha Sewell from ‘Jiveswing’ in a week long residency in the following Hertfordshire schools:
 Tudor Primary
The Reddings Primary
Townsend Secondary
Longdean Secondary
The residency focused on the dance techniques of Lindy Hop, Charleston and Jazz (Shim Sham and the Big Apple). Each school was introduced to a different style with the whole project culminating in an informal performance sharing at end of the week.
As part of the project ‘Jive Swing’ were commissioned to produce a teacher’s resource pack covering each style that could be shared with Hertfordshire schools. The resources are available from the links below:
Enjoy!
