Canadian Champions Myles Munroe & Tessa Cunningham Munroe are West Coast Swing master teachers and ambassadors of WCS, touring internationally for over 19 years, teaching, judging, and performing, and leading the Showcase division.Since 2009, they have been teaching online comprehensive WCS training programs for teachers and dancers.Throughout the pandemic, hundreds of dancers worldwide have used these programs to achieve breakthroughs in their dance - even without access to physical touch.This workshop is a tiny sample of the signature Swing Literacy development method Myles & Tessa use to help students #trainWCSsmarter.Learn more about Swing Literacy method and discover what's possible for your West Coast Swing: www.swingliteracy.com
Tessa’s academic background started with competitive swimming, where she received National Coaching Certification, created a Coach Training Program, graduated from UBC with a Bachelor of Kinesiology, and started an Olympic-track coaching career, all before returning to school to complete her Bachelor of Education. Tessa has been professionally practicing physical education, movement analysis, and pedagogy for the past 30 years, and this constant training in “how to teach” was the other huge factor that allowed Myles and Tessa to create such a powerful and effective program (Swing Literacy).
Myles brings a classical dance training background, 6 UCWDC World Championship titles, Karate, Wing Chun Kung Fu, Jiu-Jitsu, golf and motorcycle racing to the table, and considers himself an eternal student of manipulating kinetics for sport and artMyles is so passionate about improving his craft, he literally has a tattoo that reads, “Technique prevents the body from limiting the soul’s expression”. His studies in all of these non-dance fields, along with being classically trained and studying the inner workings of over 14 different dances, is a huge part of what made it possible for him and Tessa to create Swing Literacy.
