 The 15th annual Fort Wayne “Dance for All” is in full ‘swing’ in the Summit City. “It does change your life. It's awesome” says Joanne Brady, a choreographer, who has been dancing for 50-years Brady says there are two reasons why she's such a foxtrot fanatic: the music and the people. Brady's one of 40 choreographers from across the country ready to teach you line dancing, swing, two-step, clogging, hustle, salsa, and jazz moves. Choreographer Scott Blebins is grateful to be able to teach beginners how to dance their troubles away. “People are very stressed. I feel fortunate that I'm among the people that helps get them away from their troubles, even if it's for a weekend” says Blebins. A mix of 600-to-700 beginners and expert dancers will descend upon the Grand Wayne Center through Sunday, as part of the ‘Dance for All.’ “It's officially a dance for everyone” says Jamie Marshall, Director of the Fort Wayne Dance for All. Choreographers say it's a family environment, with 90-year-olds down to 9-year-olds in attendance.  The convention continues until Sunday at the Grand Wayne Center in downtown Fort Wayne. It's open to the public. For times, pricing and more information head to http://www.ftwaynedanceforall.com
