Talk:Modern Jive

message: I'm very surprised by the following statement:
:...dance styles such as Discofox (found in Germany and Switzerland) and Bugg (found in Sweden) can also be considered to be forms of Modern Jive...
Those dance styles use syncopation and are visually quite distinct from modern jive. I have heard of dancers coming to modern jive and pointing to the similarities due to similar basic moves, but I have not heard yet of modern jive dancers moving to Discofox or Bugg and agreeing with this statement, because of the step patterns.
Any other opinion?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.162.142.149 (talk) 12:10, 6 February 2013 (UTC)

message: Where on earth in modern jive are there more female dancers than male dancers?  In 10+ years I still haven't found that mythical nirvana.  I've always been a city boy though.  Do tell...
:Headingley, Leeds, for one. On rare occasions it's got as unbalanced as forty to thirty, but there are nearly always more women present. 91.105.27.108 20:52, 22 August 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I've been dancing Modern Jive in the UK for nearly 20 years - mainly around the London area. And there are usually more women than men. Same applies for other UK social dance scenes (salsa and Argentine Tango) in my experience.David James Bailey (talk) 13:30, 13 October 2008 (UTC)

message: How does this fall within Wikiproject Jazz? I have danced MJ in hundreds of venues and it is rare to hear anything that could be considered jazz. Not even Ceroc, with their fanciful claims for the origins of the dance, claim there is any jazz connection.
