@ThePsychoCandy The more you practice, the better you can become. Practicing with a regular partner has some benefits, but you should also social dance (or dance with lots of other people) to understand lead and follow.

@paolomagnimel There's lots of different kinds of swing dances. East Coast Swing and Lindy Hop are two forms of swing dance. Boogie Woogie is a European footwork styling. It's considered it's own dance, but it's pretty much the same as East Coast Swing and Lindy Hop.

[paolomagnimel]

are boogie woogie, lindy hop and swing dance the same thing? sorry for the question but i'm a noob

[ThePsychoCandy]

wow. swing dancing is beautiful. better than modern dancing.

how many hours of practice does it take?

is it necesary to practice with a partner?

[denw11]

Nope, I love French Modern Jive and WCS, but this really doesn't appeal. Best left to the kids and those with access to a reliable supplier of whatever it takes.

Their name used to be The Swing Session and now it's Stompy Jones. They have albums under both names. They're just amazing! They write wonderful original music and pick great standards. :)
