What I think I love most about this is the other competitors aren't on the side looking nervous or focused. Everyone seems to be into the music and they just go one after the other and they're all just having fun.
yeah you can feel the vibe between them no one is looking jealous or salty at all hey all think of eachother as friendly comeptition
It is too beautiful. Every partners are different. But they all good and beautiful. It's so so amazing. Love it so much.
Are you sure? 2:40 (I would probably facepalm myself thinking of having a chance against these two, as well)
It's a contest. Each guy is wearing a number for the judges. They are each showing off one couple at a time, then everybody
Note really. I notice that no one seems to care aboput the music. Even the smiule on the last guy is kinda fake. this is a competition, with many hours poured in training.
Swing dancing. The greatest anatomy practice reference for all artists.
Thats exactly why I came here x'D and I love swing! the best to listen to while drawing
MissOngakuSama I'm a hobbyist animator and I would probably spend hours tracing the video frame by frame to learn movmetn. ;^)
Ayyy ya got me xD
Lol i actually came here for poses
How did you know lmao
They all have such unique styles, it makes you wonder how kids back in the swing era experimented with the dance.
I love how the band transitioned seamlessly between partners, and how the music matched the chemistry of the pair dancing. Brilliant stuff!
That's what I thought too! Not only the dancers do a good Performance, but the Band is slaying it too, really nice video :3
Whenever I watch swing dance videos I think “are they wearing wheels on the bottoms of their shoes?” They just glide across the floor so smoothly
In swing dancing yes
You should look up old school shuffle. They are the kings of gliding across the floor in a waY that makes you say "wait, they ARNT floating???
its so graceful looking
They use hardwood floors and they don’t wear shoes with a lot of traction so they can slide decently well but they don’t really slide too much, they mostly tiptoe
They're probably wearing dancing shoes. Dancing shoes may look just like ordinary high heeled shoes, but they're much more stable!
I really like how each couple gets a different soloist playing for their dance, and when they all dance together the entire band plays for them.
I adore the couple at 2:48 .. so cute together, have so much chemistry between them , and they swing the best in my opinion ♡♡
yeah they are 100% the best, adorable couple
I don't know about the follower but leader's name is Alexey Kazennov. He is the happiest dancer I have ever met. I think he has good chemistry with everyone! You should check him out!! 😉
vasoukoz 9999 oh thank you so much
vasoukoz 9999 was he the guy at 2:48?
Martyna Beinaryte is the follower. She is crazy good!
I'm smiling pretty hard right now. Everyone is so happy!
me too! i love this
Totally. "happy" says it all
Yes! I smiled all the way through...
Dance of happiness!
It's so wholesome!
Oh my goodness, what a serotonin booster! I was sitting there with a stupid smile on my face because it was so cute and exiting. Everyone is having fun without really focusing on the competition. This is the most fun dance ever, now I want to learn it!
I love how styles of dance, especially from the 20’s-50’s are continuously coming back! Amazing!
I really hope you're right. 21 year old woman
Cuanta más gente esté interesada en él, mejor y más divertido será.
why is this so satisfying to watch
Scusate perché,
Non c è la traduzione. Non sappiamo dove si
Svolgono queste
Gare.
It is but at the same time no.
I'm guessing the smooth way they dance, like how are they not a fucking pretzel rn?
I tried to do swing for the first time a few months ago and it was so fun even though i wasn't good at it. XD
Small tip, any skill in life is all about practice.
Swing 4 ever
It's all about the fun
I decided to go to my first swing class alone this evening 🙈 hope it'll be fun✨
The best part of swing dance is that you can enjoy it at any level :)
Nice to listen to pleasant music and see beautiful dancers. Please upload more of this kind of swing dances. Thank you
That girl with the striped shirt was my fave. She and her partner were the most fun to watch.
It's going to be the 20's again soon, let's bring it back
Sam K. Oh yes!! Absolutely
Technically this is 40's
When I did this I was this happy
oh boy little did he know dancing was not one of the things we brought back
Couple 3:17 did great with engaging the audience and this group overall prepared well for their Jack & Jill's. They have proper dance attire, footwork, form, and great partnerring 🙌💃
I came to the comments hoping to find out who they are so I could check out more of their videos or posts somewhere.
3:40 is my favorite moment, its so full of joy despite that they made a mistake, it shows that they dance with passion and have fun with it, and if thats not the most precious idk man.
all of the opponents are good and beautiful tho! Everyone seems to enjoy it which is very important, just
this moment, 3:40, it shows best i think :D
Queenixx the swing joy is contagious too! I was smiling the whole time :]
@@uttamkarmaker9102 Me tooo
His laughter ☺ i love these vibes man
the band is having so much fun watching people dance to their music
Thanks! We are Heart of Dixie and we have a first album out for a couple of months if you are interested: heartofdixie.bandcamp.com/album/in-love-with-basie
They all seemed to be very into the music and genuinely having fun which makes it so much better, and even more impressive.
What I really like about the swing/Lindy Hop community is the openness. Whenever I go to a new city and look for local swing groups, I find people that offer me to show me around town and introduce me to the local scene. Super friendly and welcoming, at every level. I hope things stay that way. Big hug to y'all and keep bouncing on the sunny side of the street! 😎 ❤️
I'm 13yrs old and I ABSOLUTELY love swing dancing. My childhood was all taking about Swing Dancing. I don't ever want to see it go away. Never ever💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖
how do you feel about it nowwww
how do you feel about it NOWWW
1:32.
I cannot emphasize enough just how hard cramming that Charleston into the 7/8 and 1/2 is. While exiting from a Lindy Circle.
langhamp8912 they were my favorite!
I'm filled with such happiness and joy. I've always known this has existed but suddenly I'm all about this. I will swing.
Style, art, Iove of life, and bloody great fun, all rolled into one. Something that’s been missing from dance floors for many decades.
I am ashamed to say that this is my first time watching swing dance. But I am also proud to say that I just fell in love with this dance style.
I wish I could dance like this! They look like they have felt on their shoes, they're just flying over the dance floor!
if i could ever get a woman with this taste of dance and music
Sunsh Tine Even this side of the waters have fish, dude. Don't worry!
yeah i was thinking of the same thing
Don't worry, my friend, women like that exist too.
same here, if i could find a guy like that too life would be perfect!
Hey, there's a bunch of us. Both guys and girls =)
Quick someone be my friend so we can learn how to swing dance together!!!
meemememememee :))
diD SOMEONE SAY MEME? i aM HERE
Just go to the classes there's plenty of people to dance with, lots of swing social events too
Omg you like swing dance music please marry me my dear chanly beautiful Brigitte ❤ lol
We can live vintage and grow old together as we still listen to swinger music
Dancing since 4 Years now... and always looking for a partner :D
That was like the coolest thing Ive ever watched on youtube.
Swing dancing is the most fun you'll ever have dancing. I always found it easy, fun, creative and relaxing. I won eight swing dance contests in a row
Swing, shuffle amd electro swing look so fun to dance!
Not sure if electro swing is a dance type or a swing style, I think it's just a kind of music if it even is haha
Exactly
Electronic mix of any genre sucks! Keep the music with real instruments and with real vocals. Hate so much of this shit today with computer generated programmed fake garbage that cheaply imitates real instruments and absolutely hate autotune used in vocals.
I can't help but be happy when theres people dancing around like that around
If I compare this to the professional dance competitions that are broadcasted on TV in Germany every now and then - the smiles in this video are REAL, so is the passion of the dancers on my point of view. Thank you for sharing your joy here.
everyone looks lovely
It's so wholesome!
Oh my goodness, what a serotonin booster! I was sitting there with a stupid smile on my face because it was so cute and exiting. Everyone is having fun without really focusing on the competition. This is the most fun dance ever, now I want to learn it!
Ayyy this shit hard lmaooo I like how everyone has their one personality showing through their dance. No one really danced the same at All and I thought it was all just a simple damce… I learned today 😂lmao
Oh my word they are all so good! I personally love the second couple though. They're my favorite.
Same!!
Every time I watch this I get really happy because one day I was watching this and my mum saw it and broke into a laughing and smiling fit and I asked why and she said it was because she really likes swing and electro swing music like me and told me a story of when she was in her early 20s or 30s she was in a swing dance competition and she danced just like the girl in the orange or yellow skirt and won and then started to cry because swing or soft music reminded her so much of me and from that day forth I was obsessed over swing music and when I see this particular video it reminds me of that day and never fails to make me smile :>
Beautifully orchestrated swing dancers and musicians - very fabulous and fun!!! Thanks for the entertainment and inspiration!!!
I love all of them, but I'm a sucker for a good use of space, and when the couple took a lap at 2:30, I was sold. Love these dancers!
Makes me happy to watch and see them all smiling, would love to learn myself! 💃
My fav dance!! I love all the moves everybody has accomplished!! Such grace and talent!!
This is one of the most beautiful dances in the world imo. I would definitely take this dance class if given the opportunity
This looks so fun to do, personally ive always lived dancing and this just makes me love it more.
Heeeey, great dancers performance, isn't it? What about the band? The Band! Love them from my home town in the hearth of Europe. Yess! And the organizers of such events! Be praised! And those who do things, be blessed. As it should be done, with love and gratitude and with tears that are behind all the efforts of such wonderful wonderful world people.
133+90 look so good! They're having so much fun and just look like a cartoon in places, I love.
Great!! It's called competition, but all the dancers look happy! And all the dancers are doing their own dances! Watching makes me happy, too!!
The last couple were my favourite too watch, they really looked like they were just having so much fun
Its amazing seeing young people still learning to dance like this
I’ve never seen this kind of dancing before! It’s so fun! I love it!!!
We’re having a swing dance at our school soon I’ m sooo excited after watching this video
i love this so much like i probably wouldve danced more if people danced like this people need to stop making dancing so complicated like dancing is just moving your body to the music youre not supposed to put a lot of thought into it
In the most absolute and entire honest that I can muster, this is the most beautiful thing in the world to do
The couple at 2:48 are the best! That seem to have the best chemistry and are so goofy together! I love them lol
I love the energy of the 1:30 guy, “they’re taping a number on my back so dignity is out the window, might as well wear a polo.” 😂
How does one even judge such a group?? They were all amazing! 🤩
i don't know why i'm watching this but i don't regret it :D
This looks like a great time! I would probably definitely trip a few times but it looks so fun
Pair 90 dance so well! I haven't even taken any Swing Dance lessons yet, and I want to dance like them
I wish this was a common thing again. BRING BACK SWING DANCING IVE ALWAYS WANTED TO LEARN
The clubs around where I live, if you start dancing with a woman, the most stereotypical (and fun) natural thing to do is essentially swing dancing. So the two of you start swing dancing and it is a lot of fun. Surprising too cause most of the clubs play ro but most of the woman fall into a swing dance.
@@jerycaryy4342 sounds like an amazing time my friend :)
Now this is a fun party dance 🎉
Wow that looks fun as hell, definitely needed to see this
I totally love Global Swing Broadcast (GSB) videos !!! :)
This makes me cry it's soo perfect and beautiful

Reminds me of my dad and I dancing back in the day! He was a natural. ❤️
I love how the contestants are cheering each other on
Pure MAGIC.
My sister and I used to play around with swing dancing together when we were really young. Good old memories. :)
This makes me so happy .
They look like they all have fun, it doesn’t feel like a competition at all!
4:59 Couple 79 (yellow skirt) is like "What? Do we all dance now?"
guys no one is stopping you from dancing like this, go online unless you live in the middle of nowhere I am sure you can find some kind of swing dance event near you
Classic music and classic dance no doubt tastes good like old wine
How my memories take me back to my early yrs in high school. And the great times at the Rendiveou ball room in New Port Beach, Ca.
I love watching people swing! It looks so fun ❤️
You all make me happy!
They look like they’re having fun and I rlly like that :)
nr. 90 and 133 have really done it for me, such great chemistry!
Ok ok ok now. I jus shaved and now I’ve gotten goosebumps and the hair on my legs has grown back because of it. I wanna learn to swing dance!!!
each competitor has some creative and entertaining dance-moves :-D
btw can you see and hear how accurate they clap along with the music?
Swing dancing is so fun, I love it
This is so wholesome and beautiful! Honestly love this art form
The last to dance couple for me.
Something about this just makes me so happy
