Episode 100: Tim Sant - Ceroc's Head of Dance Tells His Fascinating Story

For our 100th episode, we had an extra special guest: Tim Sant. And we ask him the questions that only the Head of Dance at Ceroc can tell us: Why do you keep changing the beginner's syllabus? Why was SILC developed? Has the dance styles changed with the music, or is music changing the dance? Who thinks of new ideas to implement in Ceroc classes?

 

But we also find out some of Tim's personal history: his dance journey at 14 years of age; how it changed the course of his education and his life; what are the proudest bits of his job.

 

This is a great chat to celebrate our milestone.
