About our guest | Cas Winter (They/Them)
Cas is a west coast swing dancer, instructor, and choreographer specializing in both following and leading at the same high level. Before they discovered WCS, they explored a wide variety of solo and partnered dances. While they prefer to follow socially, they love leading and compete in both roles. They love nerding out about the intricacies of WCS connection with their students.
Cas co-hosts a podcast Nerdy WCS with Alicia Marshal, where they analyze videos to help train your eye so you can learn faster and dance better.
