"I just wanted to say how much I’m enjoying the Webb membership. It’s opened a new Swing World for me! It’s lovely being able to dip in and out and there’s so much choice and variety. Being able to really learn a routine properly and going back over tricky parts is invaluable."

Testimonials
"Truly unforgettable times spent during this Pandemic. Never thought that it was possible to join a dancing class only a few steps from my living room! Your ‘Big Apple’ classes have been great." Elizabeth Insley
"I’m loving Simon and Anna’s online Jazz and Charleston classes. I’m actually dancing more now than was before lockdown. It works really well, I’m always at the front of class with Zoom! It’s really relaxed and we can ask questions during the class." Kezia Carter
"...one shows the steps and one watches the screen to give joint and individual guidance and understand what needs working on before moving on. .... they can also demonstrate how the moves get incorporated into lindyhop..... Oh... and of course they are really great dancers, really experienced teachers..." Lucy Frears
"The Live Online Solo Jazz & Charleston Classes with Simon and Anna Selmon are fantastic! Not only are they an absolutely great work-out from home, but I have learnt so much!" Emma Callow
What should I do ahead of online workshops?
Install Zoom: We will be connecting via Zoom video conference. Please take a moment to download Zoom for FREE at www.zoom.us. You will need to have the application downloaded to your desktop, phone or tablet prior to the start of the class.
Prepare the space: Try to be in a quiet, well-lit place for our video call. Think about how to position the camera before starting the class (we should see all of you if possible). Please be aware of your surroundings: clear a suitable space where you can move freely and safely. Think about your neighbours: let them know you will be doing the class / playing music, or perhaps put sports socks over your shoes to dampen the sound (but be careful if they are slippery on your floor).
Connect early: Click the link a 5-10 minutes before the start of the class so we can let you in and check the sound and video is working.
During the class: We will put everyone on mute except ourselves during most of the class. We will take questions at regular intervals. Use the "Raise Hand” button under the “Participants” tab at the bottom of the window.

What past students say
I found Foundations 2.0 and Find your Flow workshop extremely useful. This is the second time I did the workshop and I got much more out of it as I had a better understanding of the “basic building blocks”. Great exercises and drills how to keep your frame and connection. Simon and Anna’s workshops are friendly, supportive and relaxed. I was encouraged to experiment and push myself whilst building up my knowledge and skills to be the best dancer I can be. I would highly recommend to other dancers who want to develop a strong foundation for their dancing.
The Mini Booster workshops coached by Simon and Anna pulled me out of my dancing rut, challenged my abilities and broadened my knowledge. Simon and Anna are warm, kind and fiercely talented dancers and teachers. I can confidently say that I have left every workshop a better dancer with more confidence and always, a big smile, having made new friends.
Such an amazing workshop. Variety of effective exercises to really boost your technique and give you confidence to experiment. Some really useful food for thought for those feeling stuck, sprinkled with practical tips to bring your new ideas to life. Highly recommended! Do not miss the next one. Thanks Simon and Anna for an amazing afternoon. More please.
