Introduction To East Coast Swing - Single Swing!

This dance is loads of fun and has a really friendly community in the Bay Area that you can get to know (once this whole corona thing is over).

If you are looking for for dance that you can learn quickly and do with a community of dancers (once this whole corona thing is over), this video is a great start!

Single swing is the simplest and easiest to learn of the Jitterbug variations. Once you know the basic step, you can build on it to learn the turns that make this dance so much fun.

Unlike ballroom dance in most cities, you can go swing dancing alone and find lots of partners.

My favorite part of this video is around 1:28 where the rock step, the cornerstone of swing dancing, is explained.

About Steps On Toes

​This was honestly 3 of the most unforgettable minutes of my life. We made it a point to be present and have fun, and thanks to you that was easy and beautiful. Thanks so much for helping us have the best day.

She is a miracle worker! While my wife is an incredible dancer, I have no rhythm and we had never really slow danced together, other than the slow dance shuffle that anyone who doesn't know how to dance does. In about five sessions, LaurieAnn taught us the Fox Trot, as well as an inside and outside turn and cute intro, which looked so elegant and as if we had danced together for years. ​

​I'm proud to say that with only a few lessons we are already dancing TOGETHER and have never felt more in sync!
