Maia Paddock
Maia Paddock has been trying out different forms of dance for as long as she can remember, starting off as a tiny child in ballet, tap, and gymnastics, becoming a competitive Irish dancer throughout high school, and finally discovering lindy hop in college at UC Davis. By her senior year of college she was running the Davis Swing Dancers Lindy Hop performance team, The Tranky Moo, teaching both lindy hop and solo jazz routines. Shortly after starting Lindy Hop she began dancing Collegiate Shag, Balboa, and solo jazz, becoming especially involved in the Collegiate Shag community. She is a relatively new transplant to the Bay Area and is loving all of the opportunities to dance, teach, and perform!
