I like the way they instruct and brake down the step. Simplified!

[@jansantos7475]

It helps me a lot. It's so easy and both of you manifest it.

[@FangOliver]

When you film from your back, it will be much more popular, appreciated and respected.

[@TheBrendagolden]

Its so frustrating that 99 percent of supposedly dance instructors face the camera. Totally incorrect teaching method.

[@terencerusson5706]

when dancing the jive ,using the jive chasse timed Q,a,Q(quick,a,quick) it can be called triple jive, the basic in fallaway consists of 2 Q steps(or rock)& 2 jive chasses,the timing would then be, Q,Q, QaQ, QaQ these one & half bar constructions are the most commonly used figures when learning the Jive,so when dancing the basic in fallaway etc we do have 8 steps,however i would call it Q,Q, QaQ QaQ, rather than counting 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8 hope that helps?

[@portal2passion]

And, one and two and three and four and five and six and seven and eight, ok, got it.

[@drillerdev4624]

Actually, it's a six step base.

[@katemaysplace7636]

At my Latin and Ballroom dancing classes we lean this aswell as the Cha Cha, Quickstep,Walts and Samba. I am starting competitions soon against a friend who has not been doing it as long as me but thinks she's better lol. If she sees this, Ava, your not better than me ok. It's obvious that everyone at school thinks so.

[@nancyM1313-Boo]

Still Awesome 2024♪💃♫ thanks guys~♡

[@theresarichards9554]

That’s some Jive. Beautiful & new moves. ❤❤❤

[@dianavazquez3155]

Use jive music instead it would look better

[@marthelmelakskusele4020]

It was Jive music but weird. Trust me I go to dance lessons 5 times a week

[@장정순-r8t]

자이브 기본 베이직 설명을 잘해주셔서 감사합니다

[@MrMikeyRocks09]

They always pick the worst music 💀

[@rozend5844]

Michael J they can use DJ Ice's music. They're fantastic.💃

[@francesfehrman741]

The steps are all the same triple triple one two triple triple one to nothing different......

[@-cosmicmakes-8951]

It’s probably because anything else would be copyrighted so they tried to get as close as they could to real music lol

[@lepekahalove9460]

yes, thank you. They didn't even use traditional jive music

[@minde5311]

I told my teacher to use awinbawe awinbawe in the jungle the mighty jungle in the concert 💀💀💀💀

[@lynnsevelin7118]

Gowd I love you guys!!

[@latinlatinlatindance]

A very fine video. Thank you.

[@itz.ur.shorty23]

U guys are doing the same one l did in grade 4 l love jive more than any other Latin dance

[@jack63kids]

That would be great if it was filmed from behind so you can actually followed them as they are stepping.

[@tymanung768]

The basic hand hold is even older, as it was used on.mid 1800s waltzes, polkas, mazurkas. etc all from German. Austrian, Swiss folk dances, as are all.the arm turns and arm positions.

[@kingshark7596]

How is this different from east coast swing? It's the exact same stepping. Is the knee going higher the only difference, or is there more and I just didn't see it because they didn't teach much else?

[@elizestiehler8666]

Looks, fantastic...

[@tonytim1000]

Good steps for beginners. Thanks.

[@LAKatwoman]

Thank you :)

[@Danoz_die_wreckt]

Nice work. Simple to the point.

[@kaleyschuster1951]

This is not jive but east coast swing if I'm not mistaken. East coast is six count and looks just like this, jive is eight count and the feet don't move as much

[@CoreyChambersLA]

Awesome. Perfect description and teaching technique.

[@matthew6905]

No jive themed music to go with the dance )O; was kinda hoping to see it with the music.

[@grgjjchjjcc1702]

wow seems quite difficult! Great work! Can't wait to try it myself

[@madmart117]

Wow! I LOOOOOOVE to Jive! Rock step all de way! xxxx

[@stevenwatson1958]

I love swing jive dancing. My wife and myself would like to learn.

[@Oldisgold-motoride]

Steven, maybe we are too old for dancing? Yoga will surely be another option?

[@ivanasokolova2551]

really, i know how to dance jive from 4 years. i know bachata, samba, salsa, rumba, waltz, tango, pasodoble, cha cha cha. Plus in jive you need to swing. And in macedonia we call that step Shase

[@rixu2671]

Hello what is the name of this dance exactly? Why some Jive are not on high heels and done in another feeling?

+Sienah Pablo it's a begginers Jive I do it at me dance lessons and someone at my dance came 3rd so my teachers obviously are rite.

[@katemaysplace7636]

+Sienah Pablo my teachers are aswell. They are known well in the country I live in as they are the country winners. They make us do untill we get it rite. You probably have more years experience because I have been doing it for 7 months and starting competitions in Febuary.P.S what age are you, what country do you live in?

[@karenstrange9021]

Where did this originally come from?

[@ArnonChuechan]

สวยงามครับ

[@thomasfield585]

Is this dance very taxing on the knees?

[@cjbr65]

Sean Ang It can be. There are several 'styles' that are common and some are hard on the knees. In general the more you accent the upward action the easier it is on the knees. If you're hitting the floor hard with your feet on each 'tick' it will certainly put undue strain on the knee joint.

[@thomasfield585]

Thanks for the tip!

[@elizabetheliz435]

What's the name of the melody?

[@PaulDonaldRoy]

The tune reminds me of Goodbye Horses, from Silence of the Lambs.

[@NancyTedesco-qb3km]

Ma come si fa a vedere i passi con questi sottotitoli enormi

[@ouinic]

isen't this east coast (lindy hop) in tripple step?

[@zerikou2679]

I had to do this for a classroom project. I don't want to touch ANYOOOOONE

[@karolbielen2090]

what's the name of the song?

[@TytonidaeBingo]

How is this different from the EC Swing basic, except that they bop up and down a little more?

[@Jaymaul009]

+Rose Red The height of the knee pop and height of the foot raise is higher in jive as well.

[@TytonidaeBingo]

Jamal Job Is that the only difference in the basic?

[@professormikehunt3821]

Jive is always sort of high tempo, and thusly has slightly different timing from EC swing. But you're right, they're very very similar.

[@justindavidsears-watson9721]

This is great!! Love it!!!

[@adriannafitzgerald3252]

Isn't this the same dance that they showed for swing dancing?

[@francesfehrman741]

Yes. All the same steps.

[@bozhidar-petrov]

Gorgeous lady

[@jameswhite6740]

One would think that professional dance instructors would realize that a front camera view is great for introductions but for imitation and practice the view needs to be from rear. Other wise the true novice just gets confused and frustrated...

[@nurvyrevilla5107]

i need some steps ,, 'and still learning for the dance steps

[@shirishdahaldjheart5087]

easy dance

[@thediamonddog95]

[@jeffro7228]

Sometimes you're counting to 6 then sometimes you're counting to 8?

[@shaneallen7]

Why don't the dancers face with their back to the camera when teaching? Otherwise, everything is opposite and difficult to replicate when you are watching front on (mirror image). When I was taught ballroom dancing at social classes, the teacher had his back to the class so that you could copy exactly without having to adjust for a mirror image. This was easy to follow and learn. I can see the instructors are talented dancers; but please make it easier for us at home to copy the steps.

[@patabasesita7997]

Yeahhhh

We watched this video in school

[@jrag1000]

I'm partial to break dancing

[@aleksandrkravtsov8727]

from russia. 3:12 looks soooo weird/strange when you both dances so elegant with that "desctructive rock" music on the background.. like.. two people from some ancient age dances some ancient dance at 3020

[@ahseyaoayalam4196]

It's 2023, watching for practice 😢

[@oneeyedphotographer]

I think you should start with a demo. Music and dance, so we know where you going. Don't give me a mechano set, show me what I can make with it.

[@anshikadhingra3739]

I'm in class 9 and I have to do this dance on Annual function thank you for this video but whenever me and my partner try to dance we always end up doing k pop dance 😂💜

[@Reap3rProductions]

why his neck so loooong???

[@shellyclark1654]

Can't get it

[@nkinberg]

Hard to see what you are doing bc of the black pants. 🙁

[@dancelessonsorlando7231]

I love to dance swing, but dancing jive is completely different! Why? Because of the amount of energy expended. Jive knee action wears me out. I can dance swing all night long and never get winded - not so with jive. I dance one song and sit out for two. Ha! Jive is for the very young.

[@fuscinula]

This looks more like fancy lindy than jive.

[@YarpwarSongs]

humm, ok, but jive came b4 & I thought had lots of throwing leg up as well as bending knees while swinging left to right? what we see in 1927 movies was jive, right? danced to fast zazz of time

[@scler8453]

Nah man, Lindy hop came first, and then it evolved into all the other swing dances.

[@stephanieclaudya-rv4mo]

one two cha cha cha cha

[@melissabebbington3580]

Your knees need to be up higher

Lmaooo 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️ I’m sorry but the music?? Really??? you could tell you guys used the KZbin music section lol ayy dios mio😂😂😂

[@miriamruth1]

i miss jive ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

[@paulmciver1799]

how name the title BALLROOM dance when it is clearly a latin dance

[@arcadiosincero]

because ballroom dance includes latin/rhythm dance. it's not just smooth dances.

[@kenndajustice8040]

Yay

[@divlangameplay1998]

its jive im a latin dancer

[@jerrypeck7601]

The jive and the cha cha have similar steps or is it just me?

[@achlabachla]

WHEN WILL YOU DANCE TEACHERS learn that teaching has to b done with your back to us, then it will b much easier to catch the dance

[@thyk73]

Waaaay to fast with the explanation...

[@killerdillr]

Funny to see, how Jive got its basic from Lindy Hop and made the dance "white" = no feeling, no "rhythm" - and by the way, there aint no such thing as "jive music" as you can Jive dance to everything that goes 4/4 beat measure. However, there is a difference in Swing music, Rock music and modern music that goes 4/4 beat. In the end, it is all about the feeling. Take a look at the original jive dance from the 40s and see what "rug cuttin´" is :)

[@tadz7333]
