Hello from the Jive Frenzy Crew

Name: Kane Jenner
Teacher at Rawson Hall, Bolney and Part time teacher at Lancing Parish Hall
Years dancing: 20
I am the owner of Jive Frenzy. I have been passionate about Modern Jive for 20 years, teaching across the country, taking part in dance weekends as a DJ and running charity events. I am very proud of my Jivefrenzy crew that I now call family.

Name: Amy Packer
Years dancing: I have been dancing since I was 3, ballet, tap and modern. I only started Modern Jive when I was in my late teens. I dragged a few friends along and fell in love with it. After a couple of years life took over and I stopped dancing. Fast forward 12 years and a friend asked me if I wanted to dust off my dancing shoes and go to Jive frenzy. I absolutely love dancing, its fab exercise, without feeling like it and everyone is super friendly and helpful. I have a new bunch of crazy dance friends and I love it!

Name: Val
Years dancing: I have been dancing on and off since the late 1990s when a colleague suggested I take Modern Jive lessons from the best friend of her husband. She said “You’ll love it” and she was right. I love moving  to the music and the social side of dance has given me many friends.
I’ve always wanted to crew and couldn’t be happier now that I’ve joined the Jive Frenzy team.

Name: Nikki Fallows
Years dancing: I started my dancing journey 10 years ago after meeting someone on a cruise who did modern jive and doing some dance lessons with him on that. He convinced me to find a local jive group and from there I never looked back. My daughter also saw my enthusiasm for it and joined me in learning it. I lost weight and started to build a social circle that is still with me now. I got invited to not only dance events but attended birthday parties, BBQs, weekenders, weddings and nights out and made lasting bonds with lovely people. Everyone was so friendly, open and honest and before long I was hooked and my life was changed forever. 10 years in and I still love it. Dancing is like breathing and being part of a team like Jive frenzy is like having an extended family.

Name: Neil Marsh
Years dancing: It all started when I went to my first modern jive beginners class in 2003; the great support from all of the Crew at that class and the music got me hooked. I still go to classes around the country when I travel, and get a buzz from dancing with dancers of all ages and experiences. This can be found all over, none less than here with Jive Frenzy! It was a lovely surprise to be asked to join the Jive Frenzy Crew. Thank you! I would love to support and encourage any dancer at any stage of their dance journey and put back into modern jive the enjoyment that I continue to get at Jive Frenzy and elsewhere. Please ask me for a dance. I won’t say no!

Name: Tina Hughes
Years dancing: My dance journey began in the same way that it does for many ladies; ballet as a child which came to a halt around 9 years old when I found out that I wouldn’t be allowed to stand on my toes until I was 12. I then moved to Ballroom and Latin only having time to achieve bronze medals before the arrival of disco which seemed much more exciting at the time! After a 20+ year break from dancing, due to a partner who didn’t feel the need to dance, I found modern jive and realised what had been missing in my life. I’ve made so many friends along the way and no week is complete without some time spent on the dance floor. I was honoured to be asked to crew for Jive Frenzy and love being part of the team. Helping others to get started, and hearing them say that they wish they had found this dance community sooner, is very rewarding.
