hey! it's not a video for those who DO know how to dance...it's for those who DON'T have a clue how to...lay off guys, there aren't that many pros in this world...
This woman clearly doesn't know how to dance WCS. She's awful. Please don't look at this video to see what TRUE WCS looks like. To see what WCS really is supposed to look like, look up Robert Royston's video.
Heh. You know when it says, "The" West Coast Swing it's a little dorky. Watching someone partner dance alone on a video is kind of.... awkward. And, I agree... her anchoring is off.
I can't believe people voted my comment down. Obviously, you guys have no real idea of what dance is supposed to look like. THIS - VIDEO - IS -TERRIBLE
First variation: she is trying to anchor while doing a forward motion (an anchor is a body position where the center is back behind the forward foot), and she is staying over the forward foot. This will likely result in her anticipating the next lead forward.
Second variation: she is settling the hip back, and it's pushing her center forward. This is probably fine for Jive, but it won't work for West Coast Swing.
I don't think she knows what an anchor is. Why do people like this teach?
While it's nice to see bits of instruction free on video, it's just a shame they're not all high quality. It's migraine inducing to watch the picture jiggle all over the screen.
What's with the dip of your head on 4? It's supposed to be a smooth dance. You don't anchor properly. How on earth do you feel you are qualified to give advice on WCS.
What I mean is that there are advanced dancers in my class who are FAR better than this and they wouldn't feel qualified to teach. No, you don't need formal qualifications, but I worry for the dance if people take instruction like this!

I think only people with good things to say should post.
She is beautiful and it's a public service to post for free.
Thank you for posting.

and, why do they have someone who competes in Latin & ballroom teaching WCS? saying "ballroom" can mean a lot of things...and Latin is not Swing...

Well not everyone is built to teach.. this is only 'fun' steps as she calls it.
Everyones got to start somewhere, she might not have been teaching for very long
