"During the free "Accelerate-Your-Dance" Strategy Session with Tessa, you basically get 45 minutes to pick the brain of a deeply insightful and affirming life coach about anything related to your dance goals. You
will discuss your current state, where you would like to be, and what concrete next steps you can take to walk along that path. Tessa will also look at one of your recent dance videos and give immediate feedback
on what one or two things would most help advance your dance to the next
level TODAY. I left our consultation with more than a half dozen actionable items that I could implement, most of them the same day. I honestly can't see why anyone
would not want to take advantage of such a great, free resource!"

"I just had my Teaching Impact Strategy Session with Tessa and our conversation was an eye-opener! Tessa was always able to target precisely where the main point of the problem was coming from, and it was often from some angle that I didn't imagine myself. I am much more confident already, especially now that I know I have such impressive professional support. It was also very helpful for me because it helped me understand that other teachers were facing same difficulties and that (regardless of my particular situation and location) there are solutions! Plus, I was able to ask all questions that I needed about the Swing Literacy Teacher Development Program. Tessa was super patient and allowed me to understand more clearly certain aspects of being a WCS teacher building my community. I highly recommend this Strategy Session!"

The Accelerate Your Dance Strategy Session was a great experience! It challenged me to think about and verbalize my motivations, goals, strengths, and challenges. It helped us develop a more concrete strategy and focus for my efforts going forward.

"The Accelerate Your Dance Strategy Session was great because it helped me realize I was not alone. It also confirmed some of my intuition about what was lacking in my learning process, which I wasn't sure if I was right about. It opened my eyes to the standard of practice required to make progress. And Tessa cared about me as a person beyond my dancing, she was simply a great person to talk to and learn from about life even within a brief chat. It was time well spent."

"I'm really glad I signed up for a strategy session! I'm currently enjoying a phase of making progress and not feeling "stuck" in my dancing (thanks to SwingLiteracy!), so it honestly didn't feel that urgent. But based on my stated goals, discussion, and a bit of competition video analysis, I ended up receiving very useful focus areas and action steps for this month, in addition to options for more intensive coaching should I decide to pursue it. I also got some of my questions answered about contradictory advice from different pros/lessons, and how to decide what to prioritize. I highly recommend taking advantage of this opportunity to gain a little clarity on what you should be working on in the short, medium, and long term, no matter where you are in your dance/life."

"Thank you for the excellent guidance and insightful experience during the strategy session. With this new awareness and your practical guidance, I was able to implement some changes at a social dance that same evening. What a difference!"
