Electro Swing Dance Freestyle: Lost in the Rhythm, Jamie Berry Feat. Octavia Rose

New video, enjoy!
Edit: The "NEW" in the title (now removed) was for those who had seen my previous video and were asking for a new video; it is not meant to imply that this is some sort of new dance style.
Thank you all for your kind words as I continue to learn, improve, and appreciate dance to the fullest! Happy 2020 (:

This is awesome. Reminds me of when I was painting a house for an old lady once. She told me the story of how she and her best friend used to dance the Charleston at the bus stop in the winter, to stay warm while waiting for the bus. Her mom went by once in the family car, saw that, and was HORRIFIED. She got in huge trouble when she got home from college classes that afternoon, with her mom calling her a "loose hussy". This sweet old lady laughed . . . and laughed . . . and had a devious twinkle in her eye through the whole story. I'll never forget that interaction.

[@Injudiciously]

I see comments like "so far the moves are pretty basic" and I think they don't get it. But I do, I used to dance like this.. a kind of energetic double beat while everyone else was doing the slow groovy-cool graceful hip-sway snake dance thing. And I used to think .. why do I love dancing like this? Like almost in the air! And so I felt self conscious and tried to join the groovy hip-swing. Now I'm older, I just keep coming back to these videos - as I totally get it - wishing electro swing was there in my day, because I loved that dance, that energetic double timing. And no one even had a name for it then. What the critics fail to see is she combines both the energy and the grace (wrote that before I noted her name). To perfection. The genius caricature artist makes simple lines come alive by seeing how your brain interprets shape. She does with with movement.

[@backtomyself6950]

sky is the limit

[@lemonke3774]

Well said!

[@Anthony_in_Bloomington_Indiana]

In the martial arts, there is an old expression - Even the most advanced black belt was once a beginner. Because most people watch so much television, I think they get used to expensive, highly polished performances. Most of the dancers you see on television dance as their full time jobs, and they have spent years practicing. It's not reasonable to expect a part time, amateur dancer to dance with the skill of a seasoned pro. But most people get disconnected from reality. Honestly, I think this is one reason there are so many car accidents. When you watch television, no matter how scary the bad guy is, or the monster, you know whatever is on that screen can't hurt you. A windshield is about the same shape as a television screen. So people with poor critical thinking skills let themselves drift into - I don't have to give driving 100 percent of my attention. I can check my phone, send a text note to a friend. But with driving, just 1, 2, 3 seconds of not paying attention can mean an accident, bam!

[@michaelweir995]

If it helps, a lot of this dancing is borrowed from house music...it's called shuffle step.

[@jb6712]

This young woman is awesome in so many ways---she seems to be genuinely happy as she dances (I've seen her on another video, and she's the same way there when dancing), and she dresses in a way that doesn't have half her body exposed. That's something I very much appreciate, preferring modesty to body parts flapping in the wind. And yes, her movements are very smooth and very fluid---and I wish dearly that I could dance like her!

[@UncleWally3]

It’s her stillness that’s impressive. Well, that, and of course, her movement. And the smile? Wow, that doesn’t hurt. Come to think of it, simplicity, authenticity and an apparent total lack of hubris, pedanticism and punctiliousness is pretty darn refreshing. But really? It’s her stillness that’s impressive . . .

[@vincentreyes6154]

Big words that most people seldomly use today. But I agree, these moves are very simple and straight-forward. And yet, she looks like she's having fun! I want to get up and dance with her. I do like JSM - Sven Otten and TSC - Forsythe, but Ms. Grace Thomas here dancing is wonderful. Those former two motivate me to dance, and Grace reminds me that the number one thing about dancing is, above all things, having fun.
