Anyone who has been around the Lindy Hop dance community for any period of time knows that the art is entirely governed by a relatively small number of universal principles. 

What is less known is exactly what those principles are and how a student is supposed to learn them.

Traditionally, instructors expose their students to thousands of moves over several years with the expectation that, at some point, they will “figure out” what the principles are. 

The problem is that most students “drown” in techniques for years, and never decipher the principles with any degree of significance and clarity.

Principle-based Learning will help you make sense of every technique you are exposed to past, present, and future.

You’ll waste less time in the frustration zone, and spend more time in the flow zone.

The content you will learn in the Street Smart Swing membership will help you learn instantly what it took me over 10,000 of dancing to figure out.

History: 
[...] The Big Apple, a circle dance of traditional jazz steps done to swing music in response to a caller was very popular in the late 1930s, sweeping dance halls across the United States. In practice, in social dance settings, The Big Apple was never done the same way twice because the steps were called spontaneously by the caller in response to the music and the local community. Listen carefully to the film clip and you can hear Frankie Manning calling out the steps.

Unlike the popularly danced version of The Big Apple, however, the routine in this film clip was originally choreographed by Manning in 1937, during the height of the Big Apple dance craze.

Dancers:
Thomas “Tops” Lee and Wilda Crawford
William Downes and  Francis “Mickey” Jones
Joyce Daniels and Al Daniels
Norma Miller and George Grenidge
Frankie Manning and Lucille Middleton
