The Old Towne Swing Dancer Matt Richey - What’s Juicy
Show Notes

Before Matt could talk, he would watch his sister in dance class and by the time he was home he would have her entire routine memorized. Before high school, he saw a dance team perform and as soon as he saw them, he knew that was what he wanted to do. So it’s fair to say Matt has been dancing his entire life. Matt moved to Orange 3 years ago with a goal to be around more swing dancers and like-minded people.

Due to quarantine, all partner dancing and many dance events have closed down. Throughout this time, Matt couldn’t find the right outlet to dance so he started going on a walk everyday to get out of the house, and his walks always turned into a dance - whether he realized it or not! He just started dancing and a car would honk at him or wave - so he decided to just film his dances and bring a smile to more people, virtually! We found Matt on Instagram, and we definitely recommend you check out his page linked below. On this episode Matt, Lindsey, and Alex talk about how Matt started his Old Towne dancing videos, how he taught a dance at Disneyland’s Dapper Day, how the quarantine actually inspired this silver lining in Matt’s life.
