Welcome. I'm Kea Tesseyman

My Kea Method Dance Performance Training weaves together a body mind self care foundation for dancers, with the power of story and dynamic choreography. I developed this method in my own studio and after wild success with over 1500 students and 75+ performances, I'm bringing this method to studios and students across the globe.

🤍 thanks for stopping by

I'm dedicated to uplifting mental health + well being through dance and motivational speaking.

Dancer, Teacher (aka teen whisperer), Choreographer, and Wellness Advocate.

The Kea Method Podcast 

From the studio to the stage, (and everything in between), I share behind the scenes, the tool kit I designed for dancers and daily life, neuroscience backed habits that all dancers need to excel.

Motivational Speaking 

One of my greatest passions is sharing how I overcame what felt like insurmountable odds to get where I am today. I aim to inspire hope, release fear, strengthen mental health, and remind you to never give up on your dreams.
