MARTYNA
BEINARYTÄ–
Since she was a child she was full of energy and her parents knew it shouldn’t be wasted without a purpose. At the age of 6 Martyna joined rhythmic gymnastics classes, but after 8 determined years she felt she hadn’t found herself yet. With her sister's encouragement, Martyna decided to try Lindy Hop. After her first lesson she couldn’t stop dancing! With a huge smile on her face Martyna continued and since then she has won several Lindy Hop and Solo Jazz competitions, performed in different scenes for amazing audiences, and created a few noticeable routines. Martyna states, “Now I fully enjoy teaching Lindy Hop and can easily say – I just can’t imagine my life without the Dance.”

SMILTYS ANDRIKONIS
Thanks to his parents, Smiltys has been familiar with jazz music since the day he was born! At the age of just 4 years old he started acting in theatre, and after several years, playing saxophone and contemporary dance became his hobbies as well. After graduating, Smiltys found out about Swing dancing, and since then there was no turning back! Many classes, various competitions and international festivals later, he discovered that the dynamic between the thrill of competitions and the chill of social dancing, is what motivates him to dance. Known for his technique, variety of uncommon move combinations and attention to the connection, Smiltys tries to inspire and enrich his students with the history, musicality and small details that matter the most!

BEG to BEG/INT: You have been swing dancing for at least 6mo to 1 year, you are taking at least one weekly class at the Beginner or Beg/Int Level and go social dancing frequently. You are familiar with the basics such as the Swing-out, Lindy circle, 6 count basics and tuck turns, and side by side Charleston. You want to know more about the culture of the dance, learn more about the rhythmical language, and see the bigger picture of this art form. You may be strong technically in your basics, but need more time to pick up new material in class, and are still learning to improvise.
![](https://static.wixstatic.com/media/11062b_2042bb7351284f0f982e4787d37415e6f000.jpg/v1/fill/w_327,h_184,al_c,q_80,usm_0.66_1.00_0.01,enc_auto/11062b_2042bb7351284f0f982e4787d37415e6f000.jpg)
​INT+ to INT/ADV: You have been dancing for at least 2.5 years and are confident, technically knowledgable and fairly fluent in the rhythmical language around the dance form. You learn quickly in classes and want to be challenged rhythmically, technically, and tempo wise. You want more ways to visually embody the music and 'play' in the dance. Competitions might be a goal for you. Dancing is your lifestyle now and you are a strong social dancer.
