Between the forest and the sea, Herräng keeps surprising us.
Every year, we rediscover the magic hiding in plain sight — a rhythm in a boat, a dance in the wind.
Tiny Jam @tiny.jam.swing is our love letter to those unexpected stages.
In this video the musicians are Johan Tengholm @johantengholm , Martin Berggren @martinberggren69 , Steven Coombe @stevencoombemusic , Maka @makayavelic and playing A Smooth One by Benny Goodman
In this video the dancers are Thanos Matrapazis @thanosmatrap & Elena Evangelia @elenaevangelia

The Sofia-Thessaloniki swing connection is a significant contributor to the toll taxes collected for the highway between the two cities. Olina and Thanos don’t need an introduction and the news that we are bringing them over for our birthday is hardly a surprise.
So, the main reason to publish this announcement is to share @inakyorova 's artwork with you.
🪩 Parties at Swing Buzz Festival | SOFIA 3-5 OCTOBER 2025 promise to be awesome!❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥

Me and Thanos danced in the finals of the strictly 3-in-1 comp at Herräng 🇸🇪💛
It feels like a bigger deal when the competition is on a real stage with cool lights 🔦
I was really happy I could see people in the crowd —
when I get blinded by spotlights, my brain kind of freaks out and I get nervous. But getting on stage is scarier than actually being on it. Once I’m there, it feels really good to perform like that.
Thanos, thank you so much for sharing this experience together 🫂
We were defeated by @swingsora & @all_macco_moving in the finals — they were awesome! 🏆

I'm very grateful for being invited to Sofia Swing Festival to give some tasters with my dance partner @pedroragv_swingdancer and being able to dance and catch up with a lot of friends there. This festival felt like a family meeting 🥰
This is just one of the amazing dances that I had in Sofia.
Thank you so much for such a great environment 💓
