I have my wife, Beth, here to help break down the steps and we have some good, young dancers to show you how it works with the music. But after we show you each move in slow motion we'll give you a chance to watch it demonstrated by the younger generation, and you'll see how good you're going to look out on that floor. I am teaching this whole VidBook triple rhythm. At the end, I'll quickly show you how to convert what you learn here into single rhythm . But 98 percent of the people dancing swing are doing triple rhythm.
Some people call it jive , some call it jitterbug , East Coast . . .
Whatever you call it there are some fundamentals you need to know when you dance swing. That's where you'll also find clips of our eight young dancers showing off each new move in more of a dance-floor environment.
