Even before Elysia knew what swing dancing was, she thought it sounded awesome and wanted to learn. Early in 2006, Swing Patrol opened a venue in her local area and she has been hooked ever since. She continues to develop her dancefloor skills through classes, workshops and experimentation on the social dancefloor. The music, the energy and the atmosphere has had her dancing whenever and where ever possible!

Prior to her moving to Hobart, Elysia taught briefly for Swing Patrol Launceston. She is a regular on the DJ circuit and also a member of Lindymob, the swing performance troupe in Hobart. You rarely see Elysia sitting a night out when there is music to dance to and she is often seen switching things up by leading and following on the dance-floor. In her spare time Elysia works in the mental health field. She is in the final stages of her Masters of Psychology and loves what she does. She is passionate about all areas of her life but if pushed she is likely to admit that she would rather be dancing!

Elysia is a bright and friendly teacher who believes in fun and good foundations for dancing. She endevours to offer these to her students and is guided by her belief that you never stop learning!
