The Whip (of which there are about 40 variations in WCS), could be compared to the pivot in Carolina Shag. Today patterns are used from various swings which is referred to as infusion. Customarily one should maintain the pattern of the originality. Unfortunately, very few dance instructors (often called teachers, yet they have no teaching license, nor teacher training) are actually qualified in the sense to teach. It's understandable because I have spent well over $10,000 (on 24 dances) over the past 20 years to become qualified.
