From when I started 2008 to 2010, the home of swing dancing in Vancouver was the Commercial Drive Legion. You could find me there almost every Saturday night, and it was the site of many milestones in my dancing career: my first time making finals in both lindy hop and balboa competitions and my first team competition.

So I am especially thrilled that we'll be holding Vancouver Balboa Mini Fest 2026 here! In addition to the many memories, the Legion has a beautiful sprung wood floor, and is in a great location right by the Commercial SkyTrain Station with tons of great restaurants & ships nearby.

DJ Spotlight! We are thrilled to welcome Ann Sychterz to the DJ team at Vancouver Balboa Mini Fest 2026! Ann began swing dancing in Waterloo, Canada and now lives in the US. Since getting her first songs, she has DJed in her home scenes including the one she co-founded in Switzerland called Swingtime Lausanne. She has had the fortune of playing swing jazz including head and competition DJ for events around the world. Digging through old stuff and new (soft spot for the original stuff), small group to big band to Newport, North American and European, she aims to create an atmosphere worthy of creativity and playing around with the dance.

Meet your Vancouver Balboa Mini Fest 2026 Instructors! We are so excited to welcome Theresa Manney to this year's teaching staff. Looking for a private lesson with Theresa during the weekend? Let us know and we'll connect you!

Theresa has been a dance enthusiast for as long as she can remember. She has extensive experience in ballet, modern and aerial arts, but nothing captures her heart like jazz music and swing dancing. She adores many styles, especially Balboa, Collegiate S**g, Lindy Hop and Solo Jazz.

As an instructor, Theresa is known for having a keen eye for body mechanics with a strong focus to encourage her students to listen to the music as a way to inspire movement.
