HSDS Represents at Jubilee Jazz!

Congratulations to all the HSDS dancers who competed at Jubilee Jazz. I don't think Huntsville has ever competed so much in a swing event. Tabitha Bassett, Gabriel Bassett, Huy Huynh, Briana Austin McIntire, Paul Fryer, and Rob Murphy all competed. Huy placed in everything he entered (well, finals in invitational J&J), Tabitha took first in Open J&J with Paul taking third, and Huy and Briana took first in the blues comp. What an incredible showing and hopefully a preview of whats to come in HSDS competing!

Dean Martinis at Jump Jive and Swing this Saturday


Just a note that the Dean Martinis are playing Jump Jive and Swing this Saturday. There's a lot going on that day, (KLX, Jubilee Jazz, and Rocket City Jazz Orchestra presented by HSDS), but if you're up in Nashville and not at one of the other events, I encourage you to check them out.

And don't forget, the Dean Martinis do a lot of great events regularly, (and are very good to the swing community) so we encourage you to check them out: http://thedeanmartinis.com/!
