Introducing our second Level 2 instructor for Heartland SwingOut! 2026:

✨ Bryan Soto from Minneapolis, MN

Bryan began swing dancing after graduating college and quickly fell in love with both the dance and the travel that came with it attending more than 20 events annually for several years.

Along the way, he taught in his local dance scene and university swing club, helped organize Classic City Swing for four years as the event grew to 300+ dancers, and has been regularly teaching with Uptown Swing in Minneapolis since 2021.

Bryan brings an encouraging and joyful approach to teaching, always hoping to help students deepen their own connection to Lindy Hop and find joy in their dancing.
