TEACHERS' DEVELOPMENT COLLECTIVE

Our Teachers' Development Collective meets about once per term. The specific dates can be found on our calendar. These sessions aim to build community and support the teaching journey of swing and blues dance teachers across Edinburgh.

In these sessions, you can expect:

  • Practical teaching role-play

  • Self reflection

  • Goal setting

  • Practicing accountability in your personal development

  • Sharing resources

  • Challenging and pushing your teaching skills

Sessions are currently completely free to attend, but you must book your place ahead of time by purchasing a ticket on dancecloud. Subsequent sessions may not be free to attend. For more information on how to begin teaching for ESDS, please see our Route to Teaching.

The sessions will be led by the wonderful Alex Fairhead and Lottie Avery.

Alex and Lottie have each been dancing Lindy Hop for 10 years. They both have a background in dancing; Alex is classically trained while Lottie's background is musical theatre and street dance.

 

Lindy Hop brought them together and they just love getting to bring this amazing dance into other people's lives and to share the joy it brings.
