Jerry and Kathy Warwick
Jerry and Kathy Warwick have been dancing for decades and
started swing dancing over 6 years ago. They have been
teaching Swing and Lindy Hop for over three years. They were
contributing members of the development of Swing Rueda,
which was the brain child of Elaine Hewlett and Jeff Miller.  
They have been active in teaching swing, Lindy Hop and Blues
in the Dallas area as well as across the country, including
national events in St. Louis, San Francisco, Portland, and
Austin.

In addition to Swing and Lindy Hop they are nationally known
for their Blues Dancing, a style of dancing to slower music.
Kathy and Jerry are the driving force in the development of
Blues dancing in the Dallas Area and the organizers of the
annual Red, White and Blues weekend Blues workshop.

You can catch them teaching weekly at Sons of Hermann Hall
