UK Jive Championships Masters Final 2008 Ceroc Modern Jive,

[HunterstonB]

I just don't get how anyone cold attempt to differentiate between Modern Jive and Ceroc.

You really have a serious problem if you think they are different. . . . . . .. .

I just don`t get why people don`t differentiate between Ceroc and Modern Jive finally!! It is so annoying!! It comes from the same root but not the same. For Pete`s Sake!!! How comes they don`t see the difference? Music is different, timing is different and the moves are a lot more arty a slower in Ceroc.

@kathykisslight

ceroc & modern jive is the same its just different organisation, its taut very similar, i think there are 3 ceroc teachers in this clip and most of the people in the clip has won ceroc competitions, i think what your getting confused with is social dancing and competition dancing,

competition dancing use bigger flash ere moves! the same people compete in ceroc and modern jive!

@quietkeypaw : Thanks for the lecture but I know from personal experience that it is not the same thing. Everyone in our class can see the difference. When Ceroc bought us over, it just went downhill. People keep complaining about the music but Ceroc just plays what THEY like and what fits with that watery style. I have heard a lot of negative things about Ceroc as an organisation in other part of the country too, by the way. Let me not go into details. But what can one do? They are popular....

Maybe you just got unlucky where you're at? In Australia I've been to several classes run by several different Modern Jive Companies- All called different company names. And they are fairly consistent here unless you go to an area where ceroc/modern jive hasn't really kicked off yet, or is still using the old, circular style. Particular venues tend to have similar teachers that teach a particular style. The new style is a lot more West Coasty.

I'd often wondered what had become of the Marshmallow Man post-Ghostbusters. It's good to see he's doing so well. Great routines.

put your right foot at two o'clock and follow your arms round, keep looking at the same spot on the wall/floor e.t.c

And wear clean underwear, just in case there's an accident and you have to be taken to hospital.
