Simon and Melanie Stemp
We are the founders of Homefront Lindy Hop and have danced for 10 years. We are passionate in the whole aspect of dancing Lindy Hop. We attend many re-enacting events choreographing for displays that we have been invited to or have organised. We run 2 dances each month in a variety of locations and organise specific workshops throughout the year. We love teaching because it is amazing to see all our students have fun, go to dances and build on their confidence to venture out and participate in some of the main events held around the country.
Alan and Mandie Hands
Mandie and I started classes with homefront 4 years ago and felt very much at home right away, along with the classes and social dances we soon found ourselves falling in love with the Lindy hop scene, Mel and Simon were kind enough to ask us to teach at one of their classes and from there we have not stopped. Right from the beginning I have been very interested in the music side and 3 years ago Simon asked me to DJ at one of their dances and since then I have not stopped. You may know me as Hands on Deck and swing music is now my passion.
Sally and Martin
Martin and I started lindy hop in 2016 and our only regret is not starting earlier ! Over the past few years we have attended dance classes and workshops to expand our knowledge and experience. We teach regular classes and workshops in a relaxed and friendly style and organise displays and events for Homefront Lindy hop. After a year in lockdown we are excited to welcome both new and existing participants to our classes and dances.
