Pamela Gaizutyte

(She/her)

Vilnius, Lithuania

Pamela Gaizutyte is an illustrious Lindy Hopper known for teaching, competing and performing in Vilnius, the capital of Lithuania (where she calls home) and around the world. Her dance style is humorous, dynamic, and full of heart – with just a touch of anarchy!

Pamela has been dancing since she was five years old, when she began performing traditional Lithuanian folk dancing. At the age of sixteen, she began classes at the Lindyhop.lt Club, where she was quickly captivated by the energy of Lindy Hop. In 2009, she began working at Hoppers’ Dance Studio, immersing herself in rhythm and movement by practising, performing, and teaching Lindy Hop and vernacular jazz on a daily basis.

In 2012, Pamela began teaching internationally. She travelled to places like Finland and Hungary, and toured the United States for the first time in 2013. Her competitive achievements over the years also showcase her love of Lindy Hop – Pamela has won numerous Mix’n’Match contests across Europe, wowing the crowds with the energy and joy of her dancing. She has also competed numerous times at the International Lindy Hop Championships (ILHC) in New York City.

Pamela finds endless inspiration in the music, psychology, and anatomy of dancing. For her, dancing is more than just perfect movement; it’s about self-expression and connection. Improvisation is where Pamela’s passion truly shines, and she finds herself constantly amazed by its possibilities for creativity and freedom.
