Learn How to Swing Dance

hi I’m Rebecca Brayton and welcome to
watchmojo.com and today Sylvia and Alan
will be showing us the basics of the
Lindy hub we’re going to show you basic
swing dance pattern we’re going to show
you three separate things and it’s going
to look like this so the first thing is
a basic then we’re going to show you
send out and I’m going to show you a
swing out so close position hold is just
a comfortable V position with you and
your partner just the guy has his hand
on the upper back of the follow that’s
me and I have my hand on the guy’s
shoulder resting comfortably so I’m just
kind of chilled out here and from there
we hold hands like this this is really
relaxed so after we’ve established a
partner position we’re going to just
practice some triple steps triple steps
are used all the way to the dance so
it’s important to know how to do them
well if I clap the rhythm it’s the first
thing we’re going to show you is a basic
step so the basic step has six counts
and if you look at our feet we’re going
to go slow slow triple step and clip+
step and slow slow triple step triple
step
now we’re going to move on to doing a
send out ok send out basically means
that we’re going to go from here and
he’s going to send me out to over there
so I’m going to look like this one two
three and four five and six so i’m going
to show you that again it’s a six-count
rock step and triple step triple step
and we end up kind of facing each other
I do that one more time we’re going to
go on so we’re going to go back step
triple step and triple step now from
here we’re going to do a swing out so a
swing out starts off in this position
and ends up in the exact same position
yeah it looks like this one two three
four five six seven so it’s an eight
count step the steps what we’re doing
before were six count so now we’re going
to add two counts and it kind of breaks
down like this slow slow triple slow
slow Triple Town South is really
important for the dance bounce bounce
