Formally trained at the Joffrey Ballet and Carnegie Hall. Scholarship to Theatre Dance. First year of medical school — then she stopped, packed her things, and went to teach line dancing at "Denim and Diamonds" in NYC and waitress to pay rent. In 1995 she discovered WCS. In 2000 she won the US Open. She has never said she regrets the med school decision. 😮 #WestCoastSwing #DeborahSzekely #SwingDance #Origin #Unexpected

"The Naked Truth: Real Talk About West Coast Swing." Co-hosted by Deborah Szekely — former medical school student turned US Open Champion — and Eric Jacobson, one of the longest-serving figures in WCS event organization. Their most downloaded episode is not about dance. It's about the conversation they almost didn't record. 🎙️ #WestCoastSwing #NakedTruthPodcast #DeborahSzekely #EricJacobson #SwingDance

1994. A social dance. Glenn Ball — already an established name on the WCS circuit — danced with a sixteen-year-old follower who had been dancing WCS for eight months. Three decades later, she is one of the most respected judges and instructors in WCS. She still describes, in teaching contexts, exactly what he did in those first eight counts — and why it changed how she understood the dance. 🥹 #WestCoastSwing #GlennBall #SwingDance #SocialDance #Mentorship

SwingDiego 2018. Glenn Ball. Deborah Szekely. A combined 50+ years of WCS competition experience between two dancers who had never been drawn together before. When the draw was announced, the room's reaction was audible. When the performance ended, the room's reaction was something else entirely. 😶 #WestCoastSwing #GlennBall #DeborahSzekely #SwingDiego2018 #SwingDance
