Patrick Wall

Help us welcome Patrick Wall as Swing Central's guest instructor for the May series classes. Patrick has been a staple of the Sacramento dance scene for the past 8 years. Since picking up Lindy Hop from his older siblings in 1999 Patrick won his first major competition at Jitterbug Jam in Southern California. Pat is a regular instructor at Midtown Stomp in Sacramento. A favorite lead of follows from all over the country, Patrick is known for his fun fluid dance style and attention to musicality. As a teacher, he specializes in breaking down the basics and keeping the attention of large classes with his array of animal noises. It may be difficult to keep track of Patrick on the dance floor, as he changes his shirt every few songs because he dances so hard. Some in the Sacramento dance scene like to joke that he runs his very own wet t-shirt contest. You can tell the follows who have been dancing with him because their left side is damp. On weekends and warm summer nights, Patrick can be found riding his horse and training for reined cowhorse competitions. Maybe for his next class he'll teach us how to stay on a bucking bronco. And who can resist a dancing cowboy?
