Beginning in 1998, Abigail Browning fell in love with the grace and athleticism of swing dancing, and has pursued the art and history of Lindy Hop, Balboa, Blues, Solo and Partnered Charleston, Peabody, and Collegiate Shag ever since.

As she teaches, Abigail fosters creativity and musicality for leads and follows through technique, and emphasizes body control through isolation, repetition, and balance while having fun and preserving the historical integrity of the dance.

In addition to teaching, Abigail opened Vintage Rhythm Dance Studio in Nashville, TN in 2006 where she organized events through 2008. As well as teaching and organizing, Abigail is a passionate DJ, having spun at weekly dances in Nashville, TN and Washington, DC (at The Jam Cellar) and national events.

Currently, Aba is based out of the Washington DC area.

More About Aba (goofy)

Abigail Browning loves words like "rigamarole," "kerfuffle," and "scrumtrulescent." She learned such words during her years at Vanderbilt University, getting a degree in "English.'' She dislikes adverbs and clichés, and if she were a poem, she would be an epigram. But - Ms. Browning isn't a poem. She's a person. She's a person who teaches connected and creative dance and loves to move through the metaphor and simile of the music. When she dances, she sees a brilliant array of colors, and experiences synesthesia on a regular basis. So, next time you get a dance with her, ask her what colors she saw while dancing with you!
