Dance is a kind of performing art, where one can express their ideas and beliefs. And oftentimes, it is used to express a person’s emotions. Just like how this lovely couple expressed their passion for swing dance and their love for each other.

Meet Nils and Bianca. They are full-time swing dance teachers, performers, and choreographers, whose main passions and occupations are Lindy Hop and Boogie Woogie. Both have found their passion for dancing at a very young age. And because of dancing, these two talented people crossed paths, and are now performing together.
Suave Nils Andren is from Sweden, while sweet Bianca Locatelli hailed from Italy.
At 16 years old, Bianca moved to Sweden and got to meet Nils. From then on they became inseparable. These couple loves swing dance the most because for them it is not just a dance.
Behind this genre lies a strong history and powerful meaning that binds people together. They also believed that swing dance helps them spread joy through their performance.
That is why in the Rock That Swing Festival 2018 in Munich Germany, these two were featured as guest performers to showcase their talent and bring good vibes to the people.
In the tune of Bruce Channel’s “Hey! Baby”, Nils and Bianca are dressed in old-fashioned clothes, and hairdos to complete their vintage look. Both were smiling sweetly to the expecting audience that the crowd can’t help but smile too. Even before they started to dance, they are already giving off happy vibes.
As the song kicks off with a prominent riff from the well-known harmonica player Delbert McClinton, Bianca is being her bubbly self as she shakes her body with the rhythm. Followed by the little shoulder bump step that is just so adorable.
They move so effortlessly, their steps were light as a feather, as they jive to the song.
Their routine is full of twists and turns, yet their moves are impeccable. Both Nils and Bianca are graceful like swans, gliding across the dance floor with ease. It’s like their feet have of their own, skipping and slipping, exchanging quick footsteps, yet they still maintain proper body posture.
The way they move and project themselves exudes class and elegance, and their facial expressions are always on point throughout their performance. Both were fantastic on the dance floor!
What sets this couple apart from the other performers is their playfulness while dancing.
In a portion of their dance number, Nils bent his knee and was almost lying on his back, resembling Keanu Reeve’s famous bullet dodge move in the 1999 hit movie The Matrix. Aside from this, the swing couple executed many dance tricks which just added more flavor to their already incredible performance, earning them lots of cheers from the crowd.
Throughout their performance, Nils and Bianca looked so care-free and as laid-back as the song. Their dance number will remind you of sunny days and clear skies, as you stroll on a vast spring field full of daisies and sunflowers. But at the same time, they were so energetic, their movements are sharp and firm.
They really know how to entertain the crowd with their immense talent and artistic sense of humor.
