Naomi Uyama and Skye Humphries each discovered
Lindy Hop at an early age. Both began performing, competing and
teaching while still in their teens. Over a decade later they
can boast some of the top titles including the American
Lindy Hop Championships, US Open and World Lindy Hop
Championships. Naomi, from Washington DC and Skye, originally
from Ithaca, NY, have been lucky enough to travel the globe spreading
their love of the dance, from Seoul, South Korea to Seattle,
Washington, to the infamous Herrang Dance Camp in Sweden
and everywhere in between. Naomi also has a beautiful singing
voice and sometimes performs with the Boilermaker Jazz Band.
We have been fortunate to have had both Skye and Naomi at Beantown
Camp and we are excited to bring them back to our area after a fabulous weekend with them last December. You won't want to miss this very
talented and innovative duo!
There will be three days of workshops on Friday, November 26 to Sunday, November 28, 2010 at two locations. Friday and Sunday are at Lower
Falls Community Center, Newton, MA and Saturday at Brookline
Tai Chi, Brookline, MA. There is also a Swing dance with the Gordon Webster Band at Uptown
Swing Dance on Saturday night at Brookline
Tai Chi with a dance exhibition by Skye and Naomi. The workshop early registration discount deadlines are Wednesday, October 27, 2010 for the Early Bird rate and Wednesday, November 17, 2010 for the Discount rate. Space is limited so please register early to ensure a spot.
