David is a walking encyclopedia of swing dance history, which is evident whether he is teaching, performing, or picking out that perfect tune. Widely considered one of the best swing djs on the lindy scene, he knows how to play the best songs for swing dancing that get people moving. As a swing dance instructor, he is known for his humor and encouragement, helping beginning dancers to feel at ease and challenging more advanced swing dancers to push their limits. And when he's on the dance floor himself - either as a competitor or dancing socially - his ease, joy, and seemingly effortless "cool" are a delight to watch.
