Lucky Skillen has been dancing for over 20 years. He began in 1996 and started his teaching career in 1998. Since then he has taught and performed many styles of dance in Asia, Europe, and North America. He was also a member of Frankie Mannings last performance troop in NYC. For the past 13 years his main focus has been on Blues Dance. He ran one of Americas first weekly blues venues Luckys Lindy and Blues and has been on the cutting edge of the contemporary blues movement ever since. Lucky was one of the first to bring the blues dance movement to Europe and has helped to develop many of the scenes and teachers across the world. Currently, many of his students are competing and winning the worlds top blues competitions. His philosophy on dance is to know where it came from but make it your own. In his search for knowledge about blues he created a documentary on the history of American social dance called "Where We Danced," which has extensive research on the history of blues dance. He creates a fun and playful atmosphere in his classes and believes that play is learning and learning is fun!
About Jesica:
Jesica Cutler fell in love with Blues at a house party, and she's never been the same since. Since finishing her Massage Therapy training in 2010, she has practiced her knowledge of anatomy and diligently applied herself to her studies with master dance instructors. It has paid off. Over the course of the last six years she has commanded respect on many dance floors and fluidly transfers her skill set to Tango, Blues, Lindy Hop, Balboa and West Coast Swing, among others. Jes is now teaching nationally and internationally as she continues to joyfully explore and study dance as an Art form. Having worked as a massage therapist for the last 6 years, she understands that every body is unique and requires masterful application of touch, integrative exercises and humor. Jes passion for dance is deep and her students find themselves cross training in dances they never thought theyd approach.
