Modern jive? This looks like west coast swing to me. Are they the same thing?

[gerryn]

Hi The dance shown here is really CEROC. The word Ceroc is a registered trading name and independent teachers ( as here ) have to call it MODERN jive+

There is almost no footwork in ceroc.. I believe that West Coast Swing (and its American grandparent, Lindy Hop) are both footwork led, Ceroc is arm Led !

I know that Leroc, Ceroc, Modern Jive and French Jive are all exactly the same dance as far as the UK is concerned.

Incidentally this dance is ONLY done in UK, Australia & New Zealand

Hope helps

gay and boring - what you need is some ecstasy tablets and trance music if you wnat to see expression of dance

Okay, except that lindy hop is arm led. There's a basic step, but once you're past that you can mix it up to your personal taste. The vital element in lindy is connection with the center, which is given through the arm. I receive all of the info through the arms of the leader and I more or less choose my footwork.
