Sandy Lewis was born and raised in south Louisiana, dancing to Cajun and Zydeco music in the streets and dancehalls all over Cajun country. After moving to Barcelona, she began swing dancing and immediately fell in love with Collegiate Shag. Besides Shag, you can find her dancing Balboa, Boogie, St Louis Shag, and even a little bit of Blues all around the world. She's a dedicated dancer, and spends her free hours training and creating in the studio, alone and with her partners.

At the Warsaw Collegiate Shag festival in 2016 she and Martí Gasol caught the attention of the Collegiate Shag world with their breakout choreography to Tuba Skinny's version of Mother's Son-in-Law, which opened the doors for their international teaching career.

Sandy now works as a full-time dance teacher, often fulfilling both roles - leader and follower - in the classroom. You can catch her on the dancefloors around Barcelona and beyond.

Martí Gasol can be found climbing mountains, skiing and dancing swing on the dance floors around Europe and beyond. He's an avid boogie dancer and award-winning lindy hopper.

Sandy and Martí met in their very first Lindy hop class ever. They united as partners in their passion for collegiate shag just two short years ago and they have been trotting the globe and teaching the dance in cities such as Copenhagen, Hamburg, Krakow, Warsaw and now in Utrecht!

They are both founding members of the Barcelona Shag Society, which aims to bring collegiate shag dance and culture to the forefront of Barcelona's dance scene.

These two crazy kids love to show off their skills in energetic choreos and keep it fun. Their classes focus on technique and musicality, and they work harder every day to bring collegiate shag to their students. Oh, and they're both big fans of trying out the local cuisine wherever they go!
