Tina Lee
Wherever you look, you will always find Tina with a smile. Tina Lee has been dancing for 6 years. If you ask her which is her favourite swing dance, the answer is all of them - why choose one when you can have them all. For several years, she has been teaching classes at the UVic Swing Dance Club. Recently she has found another way to express her love for jazz, her baby soprano ukulele.
