Lizette Rönqvist started dancing lindy hop very young as a competition dancer. Today she focuses more on stage performances and social dancing. For the last couple of years she has been teaching and performing both locally in Stockholm and all around the globe. She is also a member of the internationally famed dance troupe ‘The Hotshots’.
Lizette gets most of her inspiration from the great dancers who were active during the swing era. In particular dancers from Whitey’s Lindy Hoppers and the dancers who starred in the dance documentary Spirit Moves.

Patrik Pettersson is a dance teacher and member of the famous swing dance company The Hot Shots. Patrik happiest on stage, which is obvious when you see his famous smile and surprising agility. It is impossible not to notice his love for all music that swings, as soon as he sets foot on the dancefloor.
He gets inspiration from the big dancers of the 30’s like Al Minns and Leon James, although he makes his moves his own.
