Bollocks, that's not Jive, it's not even the counting for Jive

@Raymot1

If you listen to the audio explanation for the first 25 seconds, I explain that this is the single rhythm Jive that is taught to a beginner student to get them dancing. Only after they've learnt and can dance the basic steps comfortably do we upgrade them to the triple rhythm of 12 3a4 5a6. Triple rhythm is too fast for a beginner student to learn right away. Thanks for watching.
