From the Markers:
"We love what we do and it shows! How excited were we the first time we heard the crowd cheering, “Go Magic Markers!” Ummm, so excited!!! We love teaching, training, competing, judging and performing across the country! Yes, all of it! We specialize in teaching all levels of dancers, both competitors and non-competitors alike. Our teaching philosophy emphasizes strong fundamentals and connection while delivering unique styling and musicality. Our goal is to share information in such a way that you’ll leave class feeling buoyant and ready to dance the night away!
We inspire you to live more by dancing more. We offer dancers of all levels to explore and create, building self-confidence and discipline. We are enthusiastic about dancing, specifically West Coast Swing! It’s a passion that comes through in every class and workshop we teach, bringing positive energy and excitement into every moment."
