fitting course 9-week GENERAL PROMO header 4-16-2023

Welcome to the 2023 Fabulous Fitting Techniques course! 

Do you sew or alter your own dance and skate costumes?

Are you tired of how the sleeves on your dresses look terrible and stop you from lifting your arms overhead with pulling on the dress?

Do you find it difficult (maybe impossible) to have your competition dress fit well enough to offer good bust support?

Have you spent hours, days and weeks look on the internet and YouTube trying to figure out how to get rid of all the wrinkles on your performance dress so it looks smooth and shapely?

If you answered YES to any of the questions above, you are gonna love my latest Sew Like A Pro™ course: Fabulous Fitting Techniques!

If you decide to join this 9-week course, it will dramatically up-level the fit and quality of dance and skate dresses, plus your confidence as a dressmaker. 

During the nine weeks, there are four intensive sessions which focus on all the primary dress components:

  • leotard
  • bust support
  • sleeves
  • skirts

You have two weeks between each of these four core training modules so you have time to watch and re-watch the training videos, plus do the homework before the next class is released. 

Also during the nine weeks are two 90-minute focus sessions featuring member questions and fitting critiques.  These sessions help address member questions, as well as give you a week with no homework assignments.

All replays and training materials related to the Fabulous Fitting Techniques course are housed on a private membership site.  You will have "lifetime" access to the fitting course membership site so you can visit and re-watch the videos as often as you need to continue growing and improving your dress fitting skills. 

Read below for more details.  

I hope you will join me for this revolutionary dressmaker course.

Yours in dance, skate and sewing,

Teresa Sigmon

P.S.  "Lifetime" means until there is no more internet, until you pass on, or a few years after I bite the bust when the savings are spent and there is no one to pay the bills.

 CURRICULUM  OVERVIEW 

(See the detailed curriculum below.) 

Session one: leotard

Using your existing store-bought patterns (or custom-made if you make your own), we dive deep into dressmaker practices so you can learn to shape and manipulate both the pattern and your leotard to create the best fitting leotard you have ever worn.

Session two: bust support

What 3-D hardware offers further bust support to a beautifully fitted leotard?

Decorative straps, bras and bra cups are the answer.

Now that you have a leotard that forms to your body.  Creating built-in bust support is the next step and the focus of this session.

Session three: member Q&As

This Q&A session is perfect for filling in any gaps in your fitting skills learned in sessions one and two. 

When one members asks a question, everyone learns from the open discussion which makes us all better dressmakers.

Session four: sleeves

Using your existing store-bought patterns, I will share my dressmaker magic guaranteed to help your sleeves look and feel like "pantyhose for the arms".

Other items include suitable fabric, stylish wrist finishes, adding a gusset, and more must-know sleeve information.

Session five: skirts

Like in previous sessions, this module uses your existing skirt patterns.  The fitting goals include how to determine figure-flattering skirt attachment lines as well as how to adjust the skirt to fit beautifully.

Principles apply to all types of dance and skate skirts, no matter what the length.

As always, every learns from open discussions because no one is as smart as every one.

Thanks SEW much for your interest in the 6-week Fabulous Fitting Techniques course!

I began my own ballroom and skate dressmaking company in 1992.  For decades I struggled with my perfectionist tendencies that demanded I create the best fitting dresses possible.  And I did.  Fitting women's curves was, and still is, my specialty.

In 2014, I was blessed with the idea of beginning an online sewing school specifically for those who want to make women's costumes for ballroom and country dance, ice and artistic roller skating.  It is called Sew Like A Pro™. 

My school is the only comprehensive, interactive, personalized sewing school for dancers and skaters in the entire world.  If you wish, click here to learn more about the sewing school

Wow, has the sewing school grown over the years!  I continue adding training to the school because there is SEW much I want to share with the people in fifteen countries who enrolled in the Complete Latin-Skate or the Complete Ballgown Programs.  

In addition to the comprehensive sewing school, I also teach a fair number of free or low-cost classes that are open to the public. Sign up for my newsletter to be notified when the next event is held.

For those who already sew for income (or want to begin doing so), I also created the Dressmaker Business Academy which is a lifesaver for those who struggle running the business!

The Fabulous Fitting Techniques course presented on this page, is the latest creation in my efforts to create a solid collection of courses and programs to suit a wide variety of sewing needs for making dance and skate dresses for women and teenagers.  

I hope to see you inside the Fabulous Fitting Techniques course!  

Yours in dance, skate and sewing,

Teresa Sigmon


 MONEY BACK GUARANTEE 

1) My commitment is to teach you how to properly fit, so you can alter and sew, figure-flattering performance dresses for women and blossoming teenagers in the genres of Ballroom, Country, Salsa, Argentine Tango and other partner dancing, as well as artistic roller and figure skating dresses, plus other styles of dance such as lyrical, contemporary, baton twirlers and belly dance.

2) You may participate in the 12-week Fabulous Fitting Techniques course risk-free for up to 14-days or through the second live session, whichever comes first.

3) If you feel the Fabulous Fitting Techniques course does not live up to my promise of teaching you to fit the curves on teenage and adult performance dresses, you may request a full refund.

(Service fees of 3%-10% may be deducted from the amount you paid.)

4) To be eligible for the "I can SEW do this!" refund, you must submit your completed homework (including all documents and forms that contribute to each module) as well as photos of your design, your dress and any fittings or sewing you did during the first 14 days of the course. 

5) No refunds will be considered until after the first live session. No exceptions. (Meaning you cannot enroll and then change your mind the next day.)

WHY? 

I put a tremendous amount of work into creating this fitting course. I know it works -- if you follow the system and do the work.

Because I TRULY WANT YOU TO SUCCEED, you must only enroll in this fitting course if you are willing to do the work -- even if it takes longer than the twelve weeks over which the course is taught.  "Not enough time" is not a valid reason.

YOU HAVE 24/7, LIFETIME ACCESS. There is no hurry. There is no excuse for not learning the professional tools and tips you need to succeed in properly fitting dance and skate costumes for teenagers and adults.

P.S. "Lifetime" means: As long as the internet exists.  Until you leave this earth. Or, until several years after I croak and there is no one to teach the live sessions and pay the bills. 

I believe in you. YOU CAN SEW  DO THIS!

Will I see you in the fitting course?  I hope so.
