West Coast Swing · Ben & Cameo McHenry

BAMEO

One of the top West Coast Swing partnerships in the world — teaching, competing, performing, and producing events across the globe.

The BAMEO Story

Ben and Cameo McHenry came together nearly 14 years ago with the goal of simply creating a routine for one night. One hour of choreography and a 2nd place in Classic the next night was just the beginning of what has become one of the top WCS partnerships in the world.

Ben and Cameo (BAMEO) have now traveled all over the United States, and all over the world including countries such as France, Germany, Ukraine, Russia, England, Ireland, South Korea, Australia, New Zealand, Netherlands, Finland, Scotland, with many more on the horizon. Together, they have made 9 US Open Classic Division finals, placed top 3 in multiple NASDE Classic Divisions including 3rd (x2) and 4th at US Open Swing Dance Championships, 3rd at Seattle Easter Swing, 1st at Swingtime in the Rockies, and 1st at MADJam just to name a few. Separately, they have consistently placed/won in Jack & Jill and Strictly Swing divisions at competitions all over including SwingDiego, US Open Swing Dance Championships, Capital President’s Day Weekend, Boogie by the Bay, and many others.
