The Teachers

Jol Rose (UK)
Jol has been dancing modern jive for over 10 years...and teaching since setting up M-Jive in Germany. As well as making sure that the weekend flows smoothly, Jol will be adding his own unique teaching touch to the workshops.

Ian Manson (NZ)
Ian is a Jivin' Munich regular ...and that's popular demand. His focus on connection and movement - as well as his endless patience - is in constant demand in his entertaining workshops and masterclasses.

Knut Tänzer (D)
Our home-grown hero of smooth jive, west coast swing, and every kind of ballroom drop, Knut teaches dance across Germany, Austria and the UK. His energetic and positive approach is an inspiration, as are his cool moves.

Mirjam Eisenzimmer (D)
Mirjam mixes jive and swing to a magical fusion. Her personality and fine teaching style is not to be missed. If you want to spice up your jive with some swing steps, kicks and tricky rhythms ...look no further. Ably assisted by another local swing-jiver, Herr Alex Klein, whose blues knocks 'em dead every time.

Christine Thoméré (FR)
She's trouble. Better make that double! She'll be ably assisting the French teaching team, bringing her own grace and style tips to the teaching.

      

...and more!

Nigel Anderson (UK)
One half of the (in)famous 'Nigel & Nina' team, Nigel is founder of Jump'n'Jive, modern jive superstars and winners on tons of awards! Nigel's expertise covers everything from jive to blues, lindy and breathtaking aerials. Words aren't enough ...Watch him here!

Thierry Gauthier (FR)
Some say that without the French we would never have invented Modern Jive. Thierry runs his Simpy Leroc business in the south of England ...but his French roots are integral to his style and panache. He specialise in fusion - bringing tango, salsa and other latin influences into modern jive. He wowed us at our Winter Warmer in 2009 and we're delighted he's coming back in May!

Christelle Fournès (FR)
The other half of Simply Leroc, Christelle is a qualified Leroc trainer and a vibrant dancer. Her background in ballroom jive, latin and salsa gives her a style and technique that every modern jiver looks for. Another gem joining the Jivin' Munich team.

Christine von Scheidt (D)
Christine is the founder of Swing & the City here in Munich and well-known internationally on the swing scene. Her experience in blues and swing - along with her smooth style - offer something very special for modern jivers.
