Charleston Variation: Savoy Kicks

[AvrilLavignesDad]

Love the move at 2.10 .............1-2, 3-4, move-the-furniture, 7-8 !

Seems like furniture is a common problem for Lindy Hoppers. I was chatting to a guy the other day and discovered we both had dents in our refridgerator doors from accidently kicking them whilst practicing Lindy Charleston in our kitchens !

There's a move called 'Kick The Dog', maybe there should be a move called 'Kick The Refridgerator'.

These Charleston videos are fabulous. Thank you for posting them. If you have a chance and the ability could you post the basic instructions for Balboa? Thanks!

Could you count the timing on this step? I'm confused if the tap is on 8 or on the first beat of the next loop. Awesome vids! I love learning this stuff.

The tap should be on the second beat of the next loop. It basically substitutes for the rock step.

Made famous by Dean Collins, Named after Hal "Savoy" Takier who created the step in Los Angeles during the 1930's...
