In this episode of The Small Moves Podcast, Jason gets the chance to chat with Jo Hoffberg; A Professional Lindy Hop instructor who teachers around the world.

Jason and Jo discuss how she was able to create a business doing what she loved, and being able to take it anywhere around the world (being ‘home free,’ as she puts it).

In addition, they’ll discuss how different cultures perceive the arts, and how these countries treat it according to their perception. You can find Jo at her personal site here, or you can connect with her and her dance partner, Kevin, and learn to dance here. You can also go meet them a Swing Break Mexico this coming February 2018!
