Isaac Winter

Isaac was born into a musical family, and grew up in the Geelong region listening to his parents jazz and blues music collection. It wasn’t until 2012 that he came across swing dancing though, seeing dancers at some of the local gigs he was attending. After being hassled by friends to give it a go for some time, he finally decided he may as well try it. Much to his surprise, he discovered he loved it and hasn’t been able to get enough of it ever since. 

Quickly getting involved in the local swing dancing scene, he first began teaching in 2013 helping others to catch the same bug he had. In between working on his PhD, Isaac loves to be immersed in developing swing dancing skills, whether it’s teaching or attending workshops himself.
