Body Language Curriculum

Body Language Curriculum Welcome all and one to the home page for the Body Language Curriculum of West Coast Swing.

Intentionally designed to level up the educational standards for WCS, like and follow to stay updated on all the exciting improvements!

02/16/2026

Here’s an opportunity for you to make a difference 💪

One of the ways we are active to be a part of the solution is in how we teach WCS. If you have taken class with us before you know, we don’t just teach how to dance, we teach how to people. We teach the cultural values associated with our dance and empower humans to take that with them off the social floors and out into the real world. Because the world needs more social dancers, it needs more people committed to actively practicing Consent, Empathy and Duality.
And while it might not make a difference to the whole world, those ethics can matter to someone’s world. One person at a time. 🌎

If you are a teacher of WCS, join this program. Work with us to develop your impact on the local community, and how you can start to train good people techniques AND good dance techniques. 💯

A lot of you have already connected with us over the educational method of the Body Language Curriculum. And now we are HYPED to be able to share the online training for this system and make it available to you and your home community!

If you have experienced the BLC in person then you know...
Yes, it’s different. Yes, it’s adaptive, language-based, and designed to make teaching feel inspiring and fun again. But up until this point, it’s been a system we use to teach. Now, we’ve created this course to help give you access to teaching with the same system.

Who’s It For?
It’s for YOU.
We know you’re already pouring your heart into your community—despite sometimes feeling like you’re running on empty — this is for you. Ariel and I have been there. Let us help you refill your cup so you can keep giving without burning out. This is for teachers, community leaders, and pro’s who genuinely care about their students and their impact on the local community.

Why Now?
Imperfect Practice Makes Progress

I scoured the interwebs for Christmas music that was "danceable" and came up with a small playlist for songs I felt like gave me the Christmas vibe without being too annoying ;)

The first 10 songs are my personal favs and recommendations, but feel free to listen and share if you're hoping spread some danceable Christmas cheer :)

P.S. Still looking for a good west-coastable version of Feliz Navidad, for now the Bossa Nova version will have to do 🤣

Alright Westies!

Are you ready to unlock the next level of Magical Social dances? ✨😍
Are you ready to reconnect to the joy of social dancing… like back when you fell in love with movement to music when you first started learning?

We often feel social pressure from well intentioned friends and enthusiasts to participate in competitions (which can be a great thing) as a measurement system for understanding your progress and worth as a dancer (which is not a great thing).

Due to the unknown judging standards and the uncontrollable variables of our game system, this error in valuation leaves most dancers feeling:

* Burnout and overwhelmed with the unknowns of how to grow and learn in a healthy consistent manner
* Disconnected from the joy of dance
* Uninspired to dance with new dancers or unable to dance with others they perceive to be better than themselves

While these experiences are very real, and often very difficult to overcome, there is a solution! A way to fast track your educational experience with the concrete skills needed to efficiently solve the problems associated with Novice.
The key is with the Body Language Curriculum.

This 6 week course will be the difference you have been looking for. It has already helped dancers who felt stuck for years break through their personal ceilings and claim their very first callback in Novice finals!

This is your invitation. Join us October 16th!

Did you hear? Glenn Ball confirms that the BLC makes “perfect sense” on his What Judges Want podcast episode with Jesse Lopez 🤓😂

Jesse had so much fun discussing the evaluation standards of WCS contests and how Doug Rousar’s new scoring system has the potential to dramatically shift the fairness and educational value of a dancers JnJ experience.

Please enjoy listening to this episode and the entire series. Be sure to let us know if you also think it makes Perfect Sense. 👌🏼
