If you really want to stand out on the dance-floor, this is the course for you.
The swing in dancing which is often referred to a pendulum movement is crucially important to dance elegantly with good balance.
Natural rise and fall movement represents typical characteristics of the swing dances in ballroom dances.
The term "swing dancing" is often extended to include other dances that do not have certain characteristics of traditional swing dances: West Coast Swing, Carolina Shag, East Coast Swing, Hand Dancing, Jive, Rock and Roll, Modern Jive, and other dances developed during the 1940s and later. A strong tradition of social and competitive boogie woogie and Rock 'n' Roll in Europe add these dances to their local swing dance cultures.
