I went to a jazz festival on the weekend and there was some swing dancing going on, it looked so fascinating but so hard! has anyone tried it? would you recommend it? is it fun? is it hard?

i've done some kinds of dancing when i had my Physical Education class during college. even when i was in high school, i joined a folk dance contest and it was nice though i'm really not that good in dancing at all hehehe.. swing is one of those folk dancing that i like, i can go with it for an hour maybe.. ;)

I learned how to swing dance back in 5th grade we learned it in my choir class to go with a song we where sining. It's fun. I also learned allot more from my grandmother.

i love swing! it's not as difficult as it looks like. you just have to know the basic steps which is easy (start with the single steps, the double-steps are more difficult for beginners) and you need a good dancing partner who knows the dance as well. because its usually the guy who'll do all the work and make us look cool on the dancefloor. have fun!
