Ruby Red & Andrew Smith
About Ruby Red
Ruby's early movement training began on ice. Later she explored ballet, modern dance, trapeze, martial arts, and eventually transitioned to Ballroom Dance, Salsa and West Coast Swing. As a child of the San Francisco Swing scene, she truly fell in love with partner dance and later helped foster the early Blues community by leading practicas and DJing house parties. Now, when she's not traveling the world to teach (and study) dance, she's building websites, organizing events and pursuing her love of drums and fine Whisky. A fierce competitor, Ruby brings flair, finesse and fabulous form to the performance arena. As an instructor and judge, she values movement quality, musicality, partnership and risk-taking. With extensive training in body mechanics and as a massage therapist, Ruby easily diagnoses technique flaws and creates innovative practice regimens both in and out of class to help all her students excel.
