richard alvarado West Coast Swing, in its contemporary form, is also done to pop music, blues, and R&B. However, Benny Goodman music was performed during the era of Lindy Hop/jitterbug-before West Coast Swing.
I'm sorry to say this, but I feel most people surfing RUclips are in my camp. What if you want a WWll 1940's theme dance party especially around Memorial Day weekend ( I went to one in the late 80's...a lot of fun too BTW. ) If you do you should play the theme music from that era, not Lady Gaga or 1970's soft rock which I stumbled upon in other videos like this. This was the music of my deceased father.
richard alvarado I started dancing with Lindy Hop and I adore big band music. But contemporary West Coast Swing is done to many genres of music. Because of this, the dance is currently very popular and is internationally recognized. Feel free to search RUclips for excellent contemporary Lindy Hop. I think you’ll find what you’re looking for.
H Ljmmh That is a strange comment. The class was having fun and the teachers who were demonstrating were having fun. However, it seems like you didn’t like something about it.
Erik Novoa & Anna Brady, very very good!!!! Grandissimi.
No comments yet? In six years!? It's trippy (yet inevitable, I guess) to see folks swing dancing to Lady Gaga. Cool and very sweet.
Lady Gaga and not Benny Goodman.....unbelievable this is swing dancing WTF?

@@SwingShoes I guess I'm just used to other dance styles, it seems stiff to me and the kissing was kind of off.
