Re: Are We Losing West Coast Swing?

I started WCS back in 1997 and the dance has changed or evolved a lot since then. In the beginner basic classes it is the same as it has always been; Push Pass (Left and Right) Tuck traveling Tuck an easy turn or spin on the side pass and basic Whip. That is all we teach in a 4 or 5 week class. The higher levels have change much more with the dances listening and responding to the music much more than the usual or normal steps and timing.
