Thank you Brian and Megan - very much! I can't dance with anyone yet (but working on my dance by myself). I am sharing this video with a beginner. We dance folks are hurting - missing dance so much, but your videos help to keep dance alive in our hearts. - from someone who is hooked on WCS.

Why doesn't ANYONE on You Tube show the ACTUAL FOOT STEPS for beginners? I'm not interested in watching you swivel your hips and do fancy turns! I need the BASICS!!!

I am not sure what you mean, we do go through the footwork for both the leader and follower and then we go through how to lead and follow the move. I am sorry if this video did not give you the help you needed.😔

I'm sorry for your struggles. We have lots of other beginner videos here that separate the leaders & Followers steps. These videos should break them down a bit better for you: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qXurgZ-po9asmtE
@johnathancagle721511 ай бұрын
lol, as someone who has never done this before and this being the first video I chose; I thought it was pretty clear the basic steps were six counts starting with the left going back. A lot of music is 8 beats but it doesn’t matter because mathematically 4 counts of 6 beats will equal 3 counts of 8 beats. So you just repeat the pattern backwards and forwards while staying on the tracks he talks about.

I'm sorry you're struggling. West Coast Swing is one of the hardest dances for beginners for sure! As we explained in the video, we were gonna show the 3 basic patterns (but show all of the rest of the 'beginner' patterns. Here is a video where we took a different approach to teaching the basics - maybe you'll like this one better.kzbin.info/www/bejne/iaW1pnaEbs-Vna8
