Very clear teaching!! Iv watched so many videos where they spend so much time talking but no showing us. Then they blaze through it. You break down every detail, foot work, hands, position.. GREAT!!
Thanks so much for the kind words! That's EXACTLY what we try to bring to the table. Simple, clear, helpful info! We've also done a lot of videos so we try to get better as we go. Experience helps! :-) Thanks for the support! -Brian
My fiance and I set the lofty goal of learning to country swing dance for our wedding and this video is SO helpful! The way you break down both the male and female parts and isolate to show their specific 'job' at that step really took the instruction to the next level. Thank you!!
Thanks for the kind words! I'm excited to hear that you found the video helpful. I think it's so cool you're going to learn for you wedding. You'll have to send us a video. That would be AMAZING -Brian
Thanks! This type of dance bypasses the problem often found with country dance floors - too small or too crowded for a line of dance, which is needed for two step.
Yes! We actually LOVE country swing (done well) It's a great dance. Easy to do. Lots of different music available. Not much space required. Expect to see more of this from us!
i dont mean to be so off topic but does anyone know a tool to get back into an instagram account? I stupidly lost the account password. I love any assistance you can offer me
@Crew Axl i really appreciate your reply. I got to the site on google and I'm in the hacking process now. Seems to take quite some time so I will reply here later with my results.
What kind of music would you dance this to? You said in the video you would link some songs, but I don’t see any anywhere. Looks cute! I think it’s like a 4 count hustle. My husband and I did that back in the 70s. It will be interesting to listen to some song titles to listen and see if our steps and rhythm still work to country music!
@@WestCoastSwingOnline I'm in Phoenix AZ. I miss the humidity of Louisville! Yes, I've found a place where I can safely dance with all of this going on. Thanks for the reply. Keep going!
@@jaredmccain4106 I LOVE AZ! I travel down there for 3-6 weeks per year. We're planning on mid to late march for the next trip. You miss the humidity.. I miss the AZ sun :-) Super glad to hear you're dancing. I've heard dancing is going well there. I'll find out here soon. Stay well -B
Great video. I have nothing against Country Swing, but without triple steps/rhythm like WCS, ECS, Lindy, Shag, etc., is it a 'Swing' dance? Did it evolve from lindy like the other Swing dances?
You know that's an awesome question Anthony. I'm not sure I have an awesome answer. LOL A lot of these dances, single time swing, jitterbug, east coast swing and probably country swing have their roots in 'swing' dancing. I can't say for sure what the roots are of country swing but I would guess it to be something along the lines of ECS done in country dance halls over the years. There are a ton of different ways it's done across the country (and youtube) What seems to be done in a lot of places lacks a structure. What we've tried to do is give it structure in a way that makes a lot of people able to learn and enjoy it. As I learn more about it's history I'll be happy to share :-) -Brian
With the exception of W.C Swing, I've always known all swing to be E.C whether it be Lindy rhythms, jive, single, double or triple rhythms. That's the knowledge I've dance with for the last thirty years when it comes to swing dancing.
Instead of talking through the whole video, I would like to see the dance moves to music. Most of the "Country Swing" dancers at the bar we go to don't keep in time with the beat of the music and they mostly dance in the same space.
Music on RUclips is hard to do bc of copyright issues. However we will be doing some videos with music that we will be putting on our website very soon. You can checkout our website here: www.westcoastswingonline.com
Thanks Blind! I hope you can use the rewind button (or even the play at 75% button) to slow down my voice. I tend to talk fast cause I love dancing :-)

Hey, so new age country music. Faster tempos.
Thank you!!
Thanks Jared! I hope you're able to dance with all the craziness. Where are you from? We're in Louisville KY -Brian

"Hammerlock" comes from wrestling. Its a behind-the-back armlock.
Very cool

This is awesome. Is there a 2nd part?

Can you also dance this with QQSS timing if the song is fast enough like Single Step Swing?
Sure can 😊
It's called the Hammerlock because you're dancing with a hammer
That might just be true :-)
i can't do hammerlock move because of a shoulder issue.
I totally understand! Always tell your leader if you've got an injury (or just a bad body part lol) It's helpful for us to know! -Brian
kind of looks like hustle
For sure. Hustle, Single time swing, jitterbug, disco fox. They all share some similarities :-) -Brian
if you're trying to teach someone something, you should talk a little slower so we can absorb it. Thank you
Thanks Blind! I hope you can use the rewind button (or even the play at 75% button) to slow down my voice. I tend to talk fast cause I love dancing :-)
