The European Smooth Association (ESA) is proud to collaborate with the Global Smooth System (GSS), an internationally recognized online training platform developed by world-class champions Toni Redpath, Michael Mead, and Jonathan Roberts. Together with a team of top professionals, GSS offers a high-level learning and training system designed for dancers who want to elevate their knowledge and skills in Smooth. Unlike traditional syllabus-based approaches, GSS focuses on building the quality of your dancing through a shared language and proven methodology. The system emphasizes simple, progressive drills that guide dancers along a structured path toward technical excellence. Most of these drills can be practiced solo or with a partner, making GSS a flexible and accessible training tool for dancers at any stage of their journey.
