Thank you so much, I anticipate a fun evening now.
Yvelisse, wish to enjoy your evening!
I had a dance lesson today where nothing was explained and I was really frustrated. Came here and after 8 minutes everything was clear. Thank you so much!
Thanks Alexandra for watching and appreciating this video. Wish you to enjoy your foxtrot!
This video was excellent - especially seeing the mans part from two directions so I could hold my phone and repeat the pattern - and then to the music. Best basic I've found on these three foxtrot moves - now I'm looking for more from Egils. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks Jim for appreciating this video. Really glad you find it helpful!
Thanks Egils. That is really what I did in old university time. Much appreciated.

You point out a big problem. Another is a usable surface--rugs and most all else will not do.

HI Egils, thank you so much, I'll be teaching the Natural Pivot Turn in my class tonight. Do you mind if I ask which song you were using, it sounds so familiar but I can't place it!
Music is Tonto by Silent Partner. Wish you to enjoy class!
Great lesson! Easy to follow, clear explanation and cool demonstration! Thank you.
Glad you like and find this lesson helpful!

The Natural Pivot Turn works well at a corner. Is it possible to do a Natural Pivot Turn in the middle of traveling along a long wall? By rotating each step more?
Thanks Nova for your question. Yes, Natural Pivot Turn can be danced along long side of room. With more amount of turn.
nice video thanks again as usual!!
R lalchan Vine, really glad you you like this Foxtrot video!
Sometime the simple lessons are the most important
Very useful in our class for Physical Education Thank you so much sir. ❤️😍
Welcome! Wish you to enjoy your dancing!
Super cours pour débutants !
Thanks and welcome!
Привет из России! Давно хочу научиться танцевать фокстрот. Мне понравился ваш видеоурок, всё очень понятно и хорошо видно. Успехов вам в вашем деле!
Добрый день Аlla! Я рад что вам понравился видео с фокстротом. Успехов вам в это сложное время!
Спасибо большое!!!
good day, what music did you used for this tutorial? I am going to use it also for my demonstration in PHYSICAL EDUCATION subject. This video helps me a lot. thankyou for this tutorial. thankyou so much for the response.
Music: Tonto by Silent Partner (TH-cam Audio Library).
Wish you to enjoy your demonstration!
@@EgilsSmagris Your demonstration is the best I've seen on you tube .Thankyou.
I've watched your cha cha, waltz, salsa, tango, and this. I want to do them all! I'm getting to be Jack of all Trades, but Master of None. Sigh.
I agree that every dance needs certain time to master it. But one dance also helps to improve other dances. Be realistic and enjoy learning 😀
@@EgilsSmagris Thank you Teach for the encouraging and practical words. Your instructions are greatly appreciated. I'll keep watching over and over until we get the moves right. I hope you don't get tired of us asking you questions or our communication with you.
Please feel free to comment and and ask questions! 👍
Tutorial semplice e interessante
Thanks and welcome
hello I am a new subscriber to your dance lessons site. Could you tell me if you have other tricks on the fox trot. Thank you.
Eveline, thanks for subscribing to my Channel! Yes, here is other social slow fox video th-cam.com/video/rtk9L-9jCXI/w-d-xo.html
You can find my videos about different topics by searching on TH-cam for example: Waltz Egils Smagris
@@EgilsSmagris ok tanks
What is the title of the background song?
Music: Tonto by Silent Partner
What is the best song example for this steps??
Thanks Erika for your question. This is Tonto by Silent Partner, tempo 30 bars per minute. Any Slow Foxtrot music will be good.
About 95 percent of Frank Sinatra's songs are a comfortable foxtrot tempo.
👏👏
Great content. - So one bar is 6 counts, right? 1-2 (S), 3-4 (S), 5(Q), 6(Q) - It would be interesting if you did one section counting with the numbers also.
Thanks! For myself I would count with numbers. But for beginners it’s usually too difficult, therefore in teaching we use Slows and Quicks.
@@EgilsSmagris Thank you, I understand. But like, at 5;25 you count with SSQQ, then, you repeat again the steps (from another angle) with SSQQ type counting. Maybe when you do the ''other angle'', you could instead do the number count so the beginner knows that S = 2 counts Q = 1 count. I find number counting is more indicative of timing, more understandable. But I just saw you have another video (re Foxtrot and Rumba, international style) where you explain the number counting and the bars, which is great !
5'30"〜20"間で、男性女性のペアが示される。全く未経験者には、この瞬間から見るととても素晴らしいイマジネーションが得られる、即、虜になるでしょう(^^)
It struck me that a big, and understressed in videos, difference exists between solo moves and moving as a couple "at speed." Inertia and G forces act on bodies/limbs, making movements different, flowing, and more easily understood and performed
Thailand so hot now. How do you do? Your music very nice song and teaching very good. Thanks. 🙏❤💙💚💛💜💓💕💖💗💞💟💝💘👍
Thanks Salinthj for watching and appreciating this video!

There is no way in this option to coincide with parts of the music. For example, usually a chant = 8 measures in 4 quarters. hence 32 Bits. You suggest counting to three.
BUT 32 is not divided by 3. Therefore, the music itself is not important to you, but only the background. It's a pity
Thanks evgenysax for your comment. Not all basic figures in dancing correspond to 1 bar or measure. Therefore when we make routines we try to have phrasing although separate figures might have 1,5 bars value (6 beats). Routine in this video is 8 + 4 = 12 bars. In advanced dancing usually dancers use figures which fit exactly in one bar or measure.
@@EgilsSmagris thanks for your reply.
You build 4 basic figures of 3 bits. And music plays in a completely different way. And her chorus is not 12, but 16 bars.
A dancer who has musical training finds himself divorced from music ... It seems to him that he is not dancing with the song, but against the song.
By the way, your music at the beginning of the lesson is not a foxtrot at all. This confirms that movements and music are not connected in any way.
Thanks evgenysax for detailed comment. I got your point. But I cannot change basic steps of social foxtrot in order to fit better to music. Only by using more advanced steps and/or changing rhythm of basic steps I can do complete justice to music structure.
Foxtrot = 4/4.
Most videos offer basic shacks like this: slow - slow - fast fast. And this is 3/4. That is, the rhythm of the Waltz. It’s very difficult to dance 3/4 when music is 4/4
I thought foxtrot steps are (mostly) counted in fives - SSQQS - i.e. 4/4
