Meet Coach Alex

Hi friend! I’m Alex Kennedy, your Shuffle and Mindset coach here at Shuffle S.H.R.E.D!

I started my shuffle journey in 2019 after watching dancers at Ultra Music Festival who were moving with a deeper connection – to the music, to themselves, and to each other. I needed to feel that.

But learning? That was another story.

Tutorials had no real information, I had no feedback, and frustration was my dance partner for way too long.

By summer of 2020, after FINALLY finding education from reputable educators across the globe, I realized something: I personally had a way of breaking things down that nobody else did.

 

A way to help people not just understand movement intellectually but actually feel it in their bodies.

So I started teaching. And I haven’t stopped since.

What To Expect Inside of Shuffle S.H.R.E.D Education

I don’t just teach you moves – I teach you how to think for yourself as a dancer.
My coaching is built on three core pillars:

01

Mindset First

Every course includes mindset modules, and my membership has live coaching where we tackle the beliefs that hold you back. Because progress isn’t just about “more practice” – it’s about how you think while practicing rewiring the way you think about yourself, your creativity, and your potential.

 

I believe that shuffle dancing is 50% mindset. Learning something new takes confidence. Freestyling takes courage. Expressing yourself fully? That’s deeper than just movement.

 

Shuffle dance is a connection to who you truly are.

02

Freestyle & Creativity

I don’t want you to copy me. I want you to find your style.

 

I teach concepts, foundations, and creative exploration so you can dance in a way that feels authentic to you. Experimentation > Perfection.

03

Groovy Full-Body Expression

Shuffle isn’t just fast footwork. It’s dancing with your whole body.

 

In every course, I make sure you develop flow, musicality, and a strong foundation – because that’s what makes a dancer truly stand out.

The Bigger Mission:

At the end of the day, I don’t just want you to get better at shuffling. I want you to feel empowered – on and off the dance floor.

To know that anything is possible. To trust yourself, your creativity, and your expression in a way that changes how you show up in every aspect of life.

Oh, and in case you were wondering –

yes, I live in Costa Rica, I’m a mindset & life coach on top of all this, and I have an unreasonable love for baby ducks, Noah Kahan and Post Malone.

Ready to become the dancer (and human) you’re meant to be? Let’s get to work. 🫡🔥
