The Swing Literacy Intensive
https://www.swingliteracy.com/swing-literacy-intensive/
Have you ever heard a teacher or judge say,
"You've got your basics down, but you need to work on your "quality of movement" or "timing, technique, and teamwork"
What does that really mean? How can you work on something you can't really define?
In this live, in-person extended workshop, Tessa will define it for you. But she won't just define it: she'll build it on you, so you have a structure and plan to practice it on your own.
No patterns; just the technique you've been searching for to make everything you've been trying to learn actually work properly.
The Swing Literacy Intensive is progressive, meaning the skills build on each other in a very intentional and effective way, which avoids overwhelm and produces drastic improvement, fast!
The dancers who attend see a permanent shift in the way they learn, practice, and grow their WCS, regardless of the style they prefer.
About Tessa
Canadian Champion Tessa is best known on the floor as a forerunner and innovator in the WCS Showcase division for the past two decades. Off stage, she is a master teacher professionally practicing movement analysis, instructional design, and teacher education for the past 30 years in the context of multiple sports and dance styles, with degrees in both Kinesiology and Education.
Growing up as a musician and athlete, she is a chameleon dancer: she adapts to any music, any partner, any style, and trains dancers to discover superpowers in being adaptable and curious with a growth mindset.
Tessa is a creator of a teaching methodology called Swing Literacy which uses the science of learning to help dancers, both in person and online, learn WCS faster and train smarter so they can get the dance they’ve been craving. She is also dedicated to training dance teachers globally to use this progressive, holistic approach to teach smarter so they can grow their communities and make a bigger impact with integrity, results, and FUN.
