WEST COAST SWING Dancers
Take your dancing to the next level!
We invite you to train with Steve & Amanda and ‘Level Up’ your West Coast Swing.
Join us each month to grow your skills and improve your dancing.
What is level up?
Perth has some fantastic dance schools offering West Coast Swing every week.
To complement these great classes, we’ve created a unique training group environment allowing dancers to develop their skills in diverse ways and at their own pace, beyond the traditional class structure.
Steve & Amanda would like to invite West Coast Swing dancers who have over 12 months experience dancing in Intermediate classes to join them in these group training sessions.
This is a great opportunity to refine your skills alongside dedicated and motivated dancers in a friendly and supportive environment. Training with your regular dance partner for the whole session also provides the opportunity for you both to safely explore advanced techniques.
Steve & Amanda are excited to lead the training group by sharing the latest concepts they’ve been working on. They’ll bring valuable insights from their personal training sessions, private lessons, 1:1 coaching with Champions and workshops with top WCS Mentors, helping you elevate your dancing to the next level.
These incredible WCS Champions & Mentors include;
- Semion & Maria
- Yakub & Emeline
- Sean & Alyssa
- JP Masson
- MacKenzie & Raushaniya
- Maxence & Virginne
- Tze & Dalena
- Katrina Branson
- Zac & Maddy
- Heejung Jung
Our goal is to ‘Level Up’ as a community of dancers, so we can all grow in the dance style we love. By honing our skills, we’ll bring fresh energy and expertise back to our weekly classes, raising the overall skill level and helping to expand the West Coast Swing community.
What will we train during the Level Up Training Days?
Our typical training days consist of the following;
- Technique
- Musicality
- Advanced / Expert level Patterns
- Creative combinations
By training with Steve & Amanda, you can expect:
- Partner and Solo Drills to improve your WCS technique.
- Improved connection so you feel great when you dance.
- Improved movement so you look great when you dance.
- Advanced & Expert level patterns to add to your repertoire.
- Advanced footwork, styling, core and frame.
- A supportive group to encourage you as you push yourself to improve
- And a whole lotta fun – because we’re dancing West Coast Swing!!!
Training Day Music
We use a playlist of songs that are intentionally a little slower than usual for our training days. This allows us to train at a slower pace while learning new movements, but also accentuate musicality moments.
If you use Spotify, you can also prepare for the training days by following the playlist and listening to the music in advance.
training day structure & requirements
To meet our goals of advancing as a group, we’ll be structuring the training days as follows;
- You must have a good foundation of all the standard West Coast Swing patterns, timing and techniques. For this reason we’re only inviting dancers who have attended 12 months or more of Intermediate level classes. If you haven’t completed 12 months but have trained in other dance styles and would like to attend, please contact us first before booking.
- Registration is only open to dance partnerships. If you’d like to attend, you must find a partner to train with. We won’t be rotating partners during these sessions, as we believe training with the same partner fosters consistency, improves communication and feedback, and enhances your ability to master complex patterns together.
- You’ll attend with a teachable mindset and be open to receive instruction and direction from Steve & Amanda as well as receive constructive feedback from your training partner.
- You’ll respect everyone in the training group.
- You’ll dance safely with your partner to avoid possible injury.
