    About 25 years ago my husband and I invested in taking dancing lessons. The one dance that stuck with us and that we used most often was this East Coast Swing. We learned a few more moves: he would turn me, we would kick between each other’s legs and a few more. I’d say we learned about 5-6 moves and by mixing them up, we had a lot of fun! The company I was an independent consultant for had a big trip each year that I would earn and we would dance the nights away! Thanks for the great memories! (I’m physically disabled now, so I enjoy the memories!)

    At my first lesson I was surprised by how little I had to move on the dance floor, for anyone else just getting into this. I kept being told to not move around so much(!) ha... The steps were really condensed. This vid cemented that and that the woman really moves around more.

    My fiance both love electro swing so I really want to do a cool exuberant first dance as a couple. I'm gonna talk to him this week and see if he wants to do something a little more choreographed and stylish. If it's stylish he's all over it.
