Crescendo, otherwise known as Wendy Faith Levicoff, is a founding member of the Shamanic Cheerleaders and the energy ball of the group. She is aptly named bringing waves of it wherever she goes! With jumping beans in her booty shorts and hips that have a mind of their own, she creates impromptu choreography on the spot. Philly-born and bred, her swirls around the dance floor raise the vibration and inspire the desire in all of us to let go and be free.
Tumbling performances and gymnastics occupied Crescendo's youth, while theatre and dance of all varieties filled her teen and collegiate years. She has studied West African, Brazilian & classical Indian dance, modern, belly dance, salsa and swing, and performed with the east coast hip-hop group, Absolute N.R.G.
When not dancing, Wendy is still moving. She is a Vinyasa yoga teacher at Yoga Tree (Castro), Mission Yoga and the Sports Club/LA in San Francisco. She also loves working one-on-one during private yoga sessions. Ever the explorer, Wendy has dabbled in fire poi, hooping, trapeze and stilt walking and is about to embark upon vocals and drumming (in Ghana, West Africa) if she can sit still long enough.
