@333MotoMoto There's a program called "download helper" that's an add on to Fire fox that let's you save movies. It's not a very good instructional video though. I'd recommend getting something off of the "swing dance shop" website. :-)
@Tiaraluveschris When you call something "the swing" you automatically lose credibility. Incidently, what kind of swing are you talking about? You do realize there is more than one kind of swing dance, right? There's East Coast Swing, West Coast Swing, Lindy Hop, Charleston, Balboa, Collegiate Shag, Carolina Shag, DC Hand Dancing, Jive, Modern Jive . . . I could keep going. All of these dances have different basics and philosophies because swing dances are folk dances.
Please think about moving the captioning to some other position on the screen. Too many times it blocks what your feet are doing which makes it difficult to learn the "steps".
Great video to get a small head start if you're planning on taking lessons!!!!
As a beginner, all the different dances/names got/get very confusing, and this was a great place to start as it is about as simple as it gets.
West Coast Swing is very obscure in the Minneapolis relative this East Coast- You can teach a follower East Coast in a moment- and you can dance variations at a 'club' to fit in with 'freestyle' dancing.
You should actually learn the triple step variation of east coast swing rather than the single step. This syncopation is what makes swing . . . swing. This will also help you along in eventually moving on to Lindy Hop or West Coast Swing.
Press 2 for some step.... and then some more step.

This dance is silly and corny. If you really want to learn swing that is easy and
fun, learn ceroc, also known as modern jive (no not ballroom jive). Ceroc or
Modern Jive is very popular in the UK, Australia and New Zeland. For some
reason, it never caught on in the US. See danceyourselfdizzy(dot)com 15 minutes ago
