The Track - E044 - Kim Clever & David Frutos

In this episode, I am joined by dancers and instructors Kim Clever and David Frutos . Kim and Dave met at a dance class at a bar in 1994, and by 1996 they were teaching swing dance together at the world famous Brown Derby . As competitors David and Kim have numerous titles together from the National Jitterbug Championships , the International Lindy Hop Championships , and US Open Championships . They have many film and television credits to their name and have been inducted into the California Swing Dance Hall of Fame , both individually and as a couple. We sat down at Camp Hollywood 2019 to talk about the early days of the camp, how getting hired by Whoopi Goldberg launched their Hollywood careers, and their experience as dancers for the Brian Setzer Orchestra . They also break down dancing at and running some of LAs top swing dance spots, their experience traveling from the west coast to compete in the east at the height of the infamous style wars, and Kim's experience as a woman in the swing dance scene.
