Nathan and Evita 

New York City, USA
Nathan is known at SnS! We are excited to have this dynamic duo coming at Swing 'n' Swim! 
​Known for her magical energy, high-flying aerials and dynamic movement, Evita Arce is a specialist in the Lindy Hop, The Charleston, Solo Jazz, and other Swing era dances. Evita performed the featured Lindy Hop role with partner, Michael Jagger, in the Broadway show SWING for the 2008 Japan tour, The Sacramento Music Circus, and the Benedum Theater in Pittsburgh. Additionally, Evita performed in "Let Freedom Swing", a Celebration of America, sponsored by Jazz at Lincoln Center and held at the Kennedy Center. It was part of the Martin Luther King day and 2009 Inaugural Festivities.
Evita's choreography and partner-work have earned her 1st and 2nd place in numerous national contests. In October 2007 at the American Lindy Hop Championships she won 1st place in Blues and Cabaret. Evita was recognized for her solo-Charleston dancing with 1st and 2nd place standings. She also took 1st place in the Jazz dance competitions, both solo and partner (with partner Nathan Bugh), at ILHC 2012!
Syncopated City, an off-shoot of the Swing FX dance troupe, was managed by Evita and partner Michael Jagger in NYC and was featured in the Edinburough, Scotland Jazz Festival, and performed at the Cabarets of Camp Savoy, as well as venues around the city and the country!
 
 
Nathan Bugh is known worldwide for his intimately rhythmic style of Lindy and vernacular jazz. He has showcased these styles in many iconic venues, such as Jazz At Lincoln Center, Carnegie Hall, The Apollo Theater, Jacob's Pillow, and the Guggenheim Museum. Active in the Lindy Hop scene since the late 1990's, Nathan has earned numerous first-place titles in Solo Jazz, Lindy Hop, Team, Invitational, Slow Dance, and Mix/Match divisions, at events like the International Lindy Hop Championships. He is also the choreographer of the 2015 ILHC winning team, "Yeah Man.” He is a principle dancer in the feature film, Rebel In The Rye, and in several music videos, including the Weepies, Be My Honey Pie. Other on-film credits include My Fair Wedding S.3 E.3 Great Gatsby Bride, Fox and Friends Christmas, and Ric Mysterie - Up All Night. In 2016 Nathan joined Caleb Teicher, for Meet Ella, a staged duet combining Lindy Hop, jazz, tap, individual and partnered improvisation. His subsequent work as a member of CT&Co, and later Wild Rhythm Dance Company, is helping to cement Lindy as a concert-dance style.
