On June 12, the 92nd Street Y will celebrate the teaching and dancing career of Paul Grecki with a special tribute dance held in his honor. The evening features the 16-piece Harlem Renaissance Orchestra and special dance performances. Since 1982, Paul has taught New Yorkers how to swing at Sandra Cameron Dance Center. He studied with two legends of Harlem’s Savoy Ballroom — Al Minns and Frankie Manning — and helped pave the way in early 1980s for the current swing revival by teaching, performing and hosting dances dedicated to lindy hop.
