Mick was introduced to modern jive way back in 1994 by Viktor Andeke. At this
point, he sparked a passion for dance which still burns to this day, and inspired
him to co-create Ijig and Verve, a dance company offering classes, workshops
and events in modern jive, Tango, Blues and West Coast Swing, and now
entering its seventh successful year.
Mick has competed many times but most memorably won the Double Trouble
title in 1999 at The Empire Leicester Square and came second in The Jive
Masters, 2003.
Mick has many years’ experience in judging modern jive competitions and with
over twenty years teaching experience on the modern jive circuit in the UK and
abroad, he is one of the most respected and loved modern jive teachers in the
Country. Mick ultimately has a keen eye for style, musicality, and fusions of
partner dancing.
