It's been ten years since Fred Ngo founded Cat's Corner and brought Lindy Hop to Montreal, Canada. For those who remember, Fred organized the Montreal International Swing Dance Festival, bringing in Frankie Manning, Norma Miller, Dawn Hampton, Ryan & Jenny, Paul & Sharon, Sylvia & Jason, Eddie & Eva and many other great teachers of the time. There were over 350 camp participants and 600 attendees for the exchange portion.

He was also the first to bring in Steven Mitchell and Virginie Jensen, as well as Bill Borgida. If Montreal's Lindy Hop scene is as vibrant as it is today, it is in no small part because of Fred Ngo and the Cat's Corner community.

Come join us in celebrating ten years at Cat's Corner. We're inviting exciting teachers (at least 5 at last count), awesome DJs, and great bands. Although there will be classes offered, the focus is on making this a party weekend with great social dancing to remember! So no early classes, and late late dancing!
