DSDS Board of Directors
President
Jerry Warwick
A member since 1999, I have been active with DSDS in many volunteer roles,
include the “Band Liaison” responsible for the booking of live bands for DSDS
dances, as instructor for both Beginning classes and workshops, and as DJ for many
of the dances. I look forward to contributing even more to the organization that has
done so much for the preservation of East Coast Swing and Lindy Hop in the Dallas
area.

Vice President
Kathy Warwick
I have been a member of the Dallas Swing Dance Society for 5 years. During that
time, I have volunteered at dances, weekend workshops and exchanges in the
capacities of staging crew, graphic designer, and instructor. I have been in local
performance troupes and competed locally and nationally.  Swing and Lindy Hop
dancing of the early 20th century was a mix of Social Dance, Performance Troupes
and Competitions. I wish to help develop and implement new programs that will
focus on competition and performance within our already successful social dance
scene.
