So what style of swing was the video above? If you said West Coast Swing to the previous video you have guessed correctly! The word "Swing" is an umbrella term for a type of music and now also for several dance styles. West Coast Swing (also called Modern Swing) is danced with 6 or 8 count patterns to mostly "modern / popular" music. Country Swing on the other hand doesn't have a specific count or footwork agreed upon among dancers and is mostly danced to popular Country music. Both dances use 4/4 timing and in the recent years Country Swing has been becoming more and more structured and definied with a variety of competitions and dance events popping up around US. Right now Country Swing style is really a "country swing fusion" that borrows a little bit from West Coast Swing in its pattern structure. It is hugely popular in Utah!-

Dance partners are not required. During each of our group classes, instructors rotate partners regularly. Already have a partner? Great! Although students may choose to stay with a designated partner throughout the class, it is strongly recommended for your learning to rotate and practice with other students for optimal improvement. This practice also improves class quality for your fellow students.
