Came across this terrific website from the swing dancers in Melbourne, AU. First site I’ve seen with an abundance of free video snippets on Lindy, Balboa, Charleston and East Coast (AKA Jitterbug or Jive…what’s in a name anyway?). Check it out, they are the best I’ve seen on the web.
My favourite clips (Windows Media Player…max out the volume!):

I’m on a Swing high after going to UMswing’s workshop last night. The people are great, very friendly! And Danny from salsa dancing was there too so there were some familiar faces. I will have to get to know the layout of the UofM campus if I’m gonna be going there every week. Anyway, better get some dinner going so see you folks later!
