Tina 'Sweet T' Davis

Tina Davis

Associated Lindy Hop & Blues Instructor, Event Organizer

"Sweet T" Productions (STP) began in August 2005 as a simple idea by founder Tina Davis to host a Blues dance workshop in Austin. Since then, STP has been a vehicle for Tina to spread her continuing love of Blues music and Blues & Swing dancing to Austin and beyond.

Tina has been dancing Swing, Lindy Hop and Blues since 1999, getting caught up in the resurgence of partner dancing thanks to those crazy Gap ads. Since then she's been dancing up a storm, fitting in a growing love for West Coast Swing, Argentine Tango and Ballroom Dance with all that swingin' and bluesin'.

Tina is continuing her love affair with dance by teaching and spreading her love of Blues dance across the land. You can find her teaching with the Austin Swing Syndicate once a month, and at her monthly Blues dance lovingly called The Back Room. She has also organized and/or taught at several Blues dance workshops in Austin and Dallas will be teaching at a national Blues dance workshop in Atlanta in early 2008.

Tina likes to emphasize to students sound fundamentals, the basics of rhythm, and love of the music. But most of all, dancing has just got to be fun.

In addition, Tina is a popular and featured DJ at many Lindy Hop & Blues events in the US and Canada and has organized several workshops and dance events in Texas and Florida. You can find out about more of her exploits at www.SweetTProductions.com.
