Jason Warner
Jason started swing dancing in 1997 and has been teaching around the Fraser Valley since 1998. In 2000 Jason suffered from a severe motorcycle accident that hindered his dancing ability. He quickly fought his way back to the dance floor and after a year and a half, is back teaching and enjoying dancing at Suburban Swing.
