its funny you do this, because in a lot of ska dancing the hardest part a lot of people of tryed to teach the ska to is to get the arms moving naturally, they want it to flow with the feet perfectly which is wrong and will throw you off... and i say it in just the fact of the matter as i believe ska dancing/swing dancing/and of course the charleston have a lot to do with one another
So your'e hopping on every 1/8th note?

I've definitely noticed this. I joined a Swing club and half the time I'm like "wait! This is just skanking!" and it makes me happy.

I know... I'm so glad to see ska making a slight comeback, specially since I'm in a ska band :)

That's awesome! I would be except I only play flute and have a terrible voice. Haha. What's the name of your band, I'll look it up.
