Hi Don: As luck would have it, I'm being taught Swing Jive, which I find looks great when it's done well, but I do tend to like a lot of fast jive music so it may prove to be a problem.

I'll have to take it up with my instructor the next time I see him. He's Korean, but licensed in England and trained in Germany, England and Italy. It's a good thing dance is such a visual art, because we often resort to getting around the language barrier through demonstration. Imagine having to pay big bucks for coaching, and only partially understanding what's being said! Chantal
