Resilient Shoulders
Stabilize your rotator cuff to improve connection and protect against injury
Kinesiology workshop hosted by Myles & Tessa
Now's the time to fortify those shoulders!
Do you:
- Get told that you “have a loose frame” or that your partner “can’t feel you”?
- Get told that your connection is too heavy/stiff but you’re just trying to protect yourself from rough partners?
- Experience pain and soreness in your upper arm, shoulder, or neck after dancing?
- Want to prepare your connection muscles to return to dance a stronger partner?
If so, it sound like your shoulders need some TLC to prepare for social dancing!
As connection experts, we help students all over the world make breakthroughs in learning connection skills smarter. This usually involves teaching game-changing technique to build fundamental skills that traditional dance classes skip over.
But sometimes dancers struggle with physical obstacles that prevent them from implementing proper techniques:
- Maybe they have already suffered a shoulder injury that they are now guarding
- Maybe they have been taught outdated or unsafe connection methods that are counterproductive and causing injury
- Maybe they're just new to West Coast Swing's very specific connection requirements so all the shoulder demands are foreign and overwhelming
Deeper issues like this call for a professional who specializes in them,
so we (Myles & Tessa) are excited to bring you this new workshop:
Resilient Shoulders
with Coach Gabriel Shaw
Practicing Kinesiologist (and fellow Westie!)

Sneak Preview
We (Myles & Tessa) have collaborated with Coach Gabriel to produce a special workshop addressing the shoulder issues that Westies struggle with both on and off the floor, and providing the conditioning exercises you need to improve your elasticity and frame and make you a more responsive partner.
