Facts about our team:
All members swing dance as a "hobby" (a passionate, time-consuming, and expensive "hobby" that is ). We are otherwise occupied full-time with non-dance related careers and/or academics.
Our average ages: mean=33, median=35, mode=36 (yes some of us are indeed math geeks).
Team members individually range from 3 years to 13 years of swing dance experience
Though many of us have known each other as acquaintances and friends for many years, we formed officially as a team in late 2007 with the main purpose of showcasing Lindy Hop/Swing Dancing at Kollaboration 8 on February 23, 2008.
Team members' ethnic backgrounds include: Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Philipino, Taiwanese, and Vietnamese.
Behind Our Name: "Jitterbugging" is not so much swing dancing as it is the spirit and jubilation behind swing dancing. We want to honor our swing dancing and Lindy Hop ancestors by inspiring people with our spirit and energy.
