Güneş Göker & Marcus Zieboll discovered Lindy Hop for themselves in 2013. “Lindy Hop changed their lives!” they still say today and travelled through Europe – from festival to festival, from dance scene to dance scene. From 2016 to 2021, they ran their own small dance studio “HappyFeet Stuttgart” and have now been based in Hamburg since the end of 2021.

Güneş has a corresponding pedagogical background, which she has further developed and adapted in teaching dance and movement. Marcus has an analytical strategy for breaking down new moves into their individual movements, understanding them and passing them to the course participants.
