ABOUT THE TEACHERS:
Vassiliki Papadopoulou has been dancing since she was 8 years old, starting with classical ballet for 7 years, followed by contemporary, ballroom and Latin dances. At the age of 19, she found her passion in Lindy Hop and Vernacular Jazz which charmed her with the energy and creativity that characterises them. Since then, she has been dancing systematically, having attended workshops in Greece and abroad. She loves competing and performing. Lindy Hop and Authentic Jazz gives her joy, energy, freedom, and in it she found a way of expression and a source of inspiration. She is currently teaching and being part of the chorus line and performance group of Rhythm Hoppers, in her hometown Athens.

Viktor Lillard grew up dancing socially with friends in a small multicultural university town in upstate NY. He discovered Lindy Hop and other Jazz dances in Ohio in 2013, and has only fallen more deeply in love with Jazz Dance as time goes on. Viktor loves to spread the joy of dance within a comprehensive experience of jazz music, and is continually studying Jazz’s profound history and cultural roots in a continuum of Black American social dance. Viktor has taught classes and workshops on three continents, and continues to travel to teach. He uses his musical knowledge and his thoughtful creative outlook to help students both become comfortable in their basics and expand their boundaries. Above all, he absolutely loves to share his musical and flowing style of swing on the social floor, and he encourages all dancers to feel the music and have fun!
