Hayley Watson

Hayley started dancing Lindy Hop in 2013 and never looked back. Although teaching since 2016, Hayley still loves to be the student and seeks out opportunities to learn from the best, both in the U.K. and internationally.

She has been part of the performance troupe Brat Pack since 2015, which has given her more experience in performing and doing aerials. With this troupe she has also found herself competing locally and internationally, picking up some placings along the way, but what touched her the most was being chosen as a 2017 ‘Legend of The Year’ by Swing Patrol!

Hayley also loves solo dancing, after learning the basic routines danced at socials she started attending classes and workshops specifically for solo jazz dancing. She really recommends doing solo dancing if you get stuck in a lindy rut!
