I studies with both Steve and Erin in Pasadena in the early 90's, and this dance seems to be tailored to the AMC crowd--more a classic version of the dance style. Of course, Steve incorporated much of the hip hop and jazz that was floating about in his swing ordinarily. Now, Steve is a bit older and has smoothed things out to match what his body can do. He really dances to the MUSIC. He and Erin were my first teachers. Truly excellent.
It would be interesting to know, if this style is representative for what was done in the mid nineties.
I just started dancing three years ago, but I have not yet seen anything only close to this. My impression is that nowadays, most folks dance much smoother.
I am now the proud owner of those shoes - signed and hanging in my studio space - great stuff Steven & Erin!!!

I agree, Steven has come a long way.

Steven's come a long way since then. Still, I can appreciate both his old and his new style with Virginie. Very different though.
