The swing community has been my refuge for the past 2 years. Without my swing troupe, the transition to college would have been extremely difficult. But dancing made it easy - I got to continue doing what I love (dancing and performing) while exercising and meeting new people from all walks of life. I'm always so proud to bring newbies into the community that I love.
