Footwork Agility
Mini-Course
Master your weight transfers so you can move in any direction, at any speed, with confidence and control!
TRAINING YOUR FOOTWORK AGILITY CHANGES EVERYTHING
If you want West Coast Swing to feel more grounded, agile, and intentional, we need to start with the feet.
Everyone talks about needing better "footwork technique". But have you noticed that there's a huge gap between the "technique" mentioned and you actually being able to implement it in your dance?
That's because there's a missing piece in your training.
Hard truth: Doing endless triples in front of the mirror, repeating choreographed figures, and collecting new footwork variations on videos are not going to progress your dance.
Your brain and muscles need a different prescription in order to build new motor pathways, refine them, improve adaptability, and speed them up.
Think of West Coast Swing like a sport...
when you train your conditioning, your performance improves.
What that looks like in West Coast Swing:
React faster
to all the little accents you hear by boosting your agility and rhythm control
Control your timing
Stay on beat and slow down or speed up effortlessly, in control
Expand your repertoire
Pick up new patterns & footwork variations more easily
Upgrade quality of movement
So you like what you see on video
That's what this mini-course provides.
Let's #trainWCSsmarter by using progressive skill development method.
Join us as we guide you through a fun, strategically structured series of follow-along drills that will help you upgrade all your footwork in just 7 days.
THE 7-DAY FOOTWORK UPGRADE
The Footwork Agility Mini-Course is a structured, progressive practice prescription, not a class you watch and forget.
Over 7 days, you’ll work through 36 targeted drills—sequenced strategically to build agility, balance, grounding, and weight-transfer control.
Each day requires just 30 minutes solo, yet the impact on how you look, feel, and move in your dancing can be dramatic.
This course consistently produces quality-of-movement breakthroughs for West Coast Swing dancers at every level.
WHAT'S INSIDE
You get:
This is designed to take about 30 minutes a day: Enough time to make real changes, but not so much that it becomes another abandoned course.
It's designed for focused practice: We recommend dedicating 1-2 weeks to the content to see the results, but you get 2 months of full access - long enough to fit real schedules, short enough to create momentum.
Get the 7-day self-led
Get a powerful collection of progressive drills in a strategic order that help you master your weight transfers so you can move in any direction, at any speed, with confidence and control!

TRAIN SMARTER
WITH CHAMPIONS
& MASTER TEACHERS
Hi we're Myles Munroe & Tessa Cunningham. As West Coast Swing Champions with over 60 years of combined teaching experience, we specialize in leveraging the science of learning to flip the script on how West Coast Swing is taught and trained, creating a development method called Swing Literacy.
This mini-course grew out of our 7-day online Footwork Agility Challenge where 7,000+ dancers from 38 countries have participated live and achieved breakthroughs in just one week.
Due to demand—and dancers who missed it—we decided to make it available year-round so you can do it independently at your own pace, whenever works for you, without needing a partner.
The Swing Literacy method make this 7-day experience so potent and effective, you'll wonder how you've learned or practiced anything without it.
The secret isn’t just the drills—it’s the progressive sequencing, which is the same “secret sauce” used across the Swing Literacy system.

You should 100% sign up for the challenge! In addition to a bunch of really fantastic technical content, you can also get individual feedback on your homework videos and learn a ton from reading all the feedback to other people who submit their homework videos in the Facebook group!
Elasticity was one of the most important skills that I had been totally missing for my first several years of WCS (of course I had heard teachers talk about stretch all the time, but I never understood what that actually meant or how to do it), and once I learned it, it suddenly opened up my dancing and allowed me to have way more fun dances with everyone! I'm excited to get to further refine and upgrade my elasticity skills during this challenge!

This is my first time trying your methods and I am so impressed. I also can’t thank you enough for the growth mindset. I struggle with thinking I’m not good enough and this made a huge difference if wanting to just keep trying even if I’m training ugly!

My aha moment was discovering how much easier spinning is when I incorporate as many of the techniques taught this week into my spins. There were so many elements missing that I will have to work on, but I see and feel the different that just these 7 days have made. I can’t wait to see how things are as I work through this more and more.

After this seven awesome super Challenge days, I can't but give you my gratitude.
You are not only top professionals but splendid teachers. Your detailed tips, instructions and also encouragement are undoubtedly great virtues of you both.
Happy to be so fortunate to have this chance to learn from you.
Congratulations and THANK YOU.

When is it happening?
This is a DIY, self-led mini-course. There is no live component, which means you can do it at your own pace, any time during your 2 months of access.
What level is this for?
All levels - We will show you how to adjust the difficulty level of each drill.
This mini-course is not going to teach you how to dance West Coast Swing - it's aimed at dancers who are already familiar with their basic patterns.
Advanced dancers will enjoy nerding out with the detailed analysis, the bonus challenges and the optional Advanced Challenge Extension upgrade.
What if I'm too busy right now?
You get 2 months of full access - you can complete and repeat the challenge any time during your access window.
Do I need a partner?
Not for the daily Challenge drills. (You'll be surprised how much progress we can help you make solo!) But you will definitely want to try them out in social dancing!
How much time will it take?
Each daily video is less than 15 minutes. Then practicing your daily material will take about another 15 minutes, which you can spread out throughout your day.
Will I need to post videos for feedback?
No, there is no feedback component to this mini-course. However this is something we provide inside the Swing Literacy online Bootcamps.
