Sheri Yau

Sheri slyly admits to being a product of the "Swingers" generation. It is this movie that first interested Sheri and her friend to finally try swing dancing in 1998. She has been enthusiastically jitterbugging ever since. A year later, Sheri met a kindred (and ambitious) spirit in Ben. Together, in their blissful ignorance and underdog manner they captured people's attention winning top placements in national and international competitions in just their first few contests including 3rd overall at the 2000 American Lindy Hop Championships and 4th overall at the 2000 World Lindy Hop Championships in Germany. Since then, they have gone on to add many more memorable titles and accomplishments to their names.
Sheri is known for her creativity, saucy spirit, and never-say-die smile on the dance floor. She loves sharing her passion with other dancers and enjoys making her classes both educational and entertaining. Sheri is excited to finally make it to Camp Jitterbug and be a part of this awesome event!
Sheri is a warm and inviting dancer and instructor. Not only does she shine in performance and competition, she is loved by her students and is a favorite nationally. We are excited to have her on both the management and instruction teams at CJ this year.
