North Seattle Instructors

Described as having the ease, the rhythm, the confidence, the playfulness, the attentiveness and collaboration of a great dancer.

I love deep diving into the technical and mechanical aspects of this dance. I believe having a strong foundation can open the door for better communication and artistic expression.

Currently known as a Chief/Head Judge on the circuit, Jim is also an accomplished Showcase division routine competitor and tree thrower at events like The Highland Games.

I can't wait to chill, compete, and dance the night away with incredible people who share my passion for West Coast swing.

I am a dance instructor and dance/movement therapist intern who believes in the transformational power of all movement and the wisdom of our bodies.

I'm a local advanced dancer and instructor here in Seattle. I enjoy working with both leads and follows.

I’m Stephen. I’m not a fan of the traditional bio. Always seemed a little odd to me, writing things about myself.

Dancing West Coast Swing since 2016, Robert's claim to WCS fame is his Blues and musical knowledge.

I care most of all about my students, their experiences and their needs whatever those are that they have brought to me. Sharing my passion of dance through teaching others and helping grow their confidence in themselves is one of my biggest joys!

I fell in love with West Coast Swing in 2018, coming in with next to zero dance experience. As an advanced leader and an intermediate follow, I bring a well-rounded perspective to my teaching, helping dancers develop strong technique, musicality, and connection.
