The numbers show it too: her Spotify age is 95 years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Once she consciously signed up for a Lindy Hop course at university. Right during her very first solo jazz steps during the warm-up, she realised that she had discovered a world she wanted to stay in for the rest of her life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Since then she has not missed an opportunity to work on her dancing. She has learnt both roles, joined the dance troupe \u201eHellzapoppin\u2019 Disaster\u201c and performed at the Tanzfest Basel, at \u201eZ\u00fcrich Tanzt Polyball\u201c, at \u201eIs There Hop\u201c and other local events. She even got her 0.0001 seconds of Charleston airtime on SRF.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Even though Maria is still constantly learning herself, she can hardly wait to pass on, impart and spread the joy, energy and passion for swing in her classes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201eHome is where you dance with others, and dancing is life,\u201c wrote Stephen King in \u201e11\/22\/63\u201c.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He was so right.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<p class=\"has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-daf9f5df980565312247c539caf623c8 wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"color:#6e6e6e;font-size:20px\">Dances since:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:24px\">2023<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<p class=\"has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-111c197f13d79bfeee820451280ee89d wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"color:#6e6e6e;font-size:20px\">Taught:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:24px\"><a href=\"https:\/\/swing.ch\/en\/tanzstil\/lindy-hop\/\" data-type=\"dance-style\" data-id=\"45\">Lindy Hop<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/swing.ch\/en\/tanzstil\/charleston\/\" data-type=\"dance-style\" data-id=\"47\">Charleston<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/swing.ch\/en\/tanzstil\/solojazz\/\" data-type=\"dance-style\" data-id=\"49\">Solo Jazz<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"featured_media":1993,"parent":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":true},"class_list":["post-1994","teacher","type-teacher","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/swing.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/teacher\/1994","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/swing.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/teacher"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/swing.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/teacher"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/swing.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1994"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
