Balboa was very
popular among the College Kids and the sophisticated dancers in the mid
30s and is now extremely popular once again. Originally Balboa was a
closed position swing form with intricate footwork predominantly based
on 8-count patterns. But when the hot Swing music really hit the scene
some of the younger dancers like Maxie Dorf and Lolly Wise added
break-aways and swing turns to the Balboa, which nowadays is often
referred to as Bal-Swing. Balboa can be danced to any speed of music,
from slow songs at 120 beats/min. till very fast ones at 300 beats/min.
Pure Balboa is probably the easiest way to dance to fast swing music,
enjoy it, and look good.
This video
doesn’t require any experience in Balboa. You will first learn the most
typical steps and principles that form the character of Balboa. Every
step is broken down and well explained to make you feel comfortable on
the dance floor, and to have fun. Building on that foundation you will
learn more footwork variations and patterns to get a deeper insight into
Balboa. This instructional video contains 50 (!) different steps. Cool
and fancy footwork will put you in the position to play more with the
music and will make your Balboa very attractive.

Dean Collins Shim Sham
Level:
Intermediate/Advanced
Preis: 29 Euro

DVD-Format: NTSC
(weltweit abspielbar) |
The Shim Sham originated as a tap dance choreographed by Leonard Reed
(1907-2004, and Willie Bryant in 1928. Intended for a show finale that
could be done by all the performers it was adopted by many dancers and
became one of the most well-known and wide-spread routines of all times.
You may be familiar with the tap version or the non-tap version that
Frankie Manning made popular teaching at many swing dance camps and
workshops all over the world. The Dean Collins version of the Shim Sham
is also a non-tap version based on the original Shim Sham with spiced up
footwork and additional steps extending the routine. Dean Collins was
the most influential Lindy Hop dancer on the West Coast and played an
essential role in bringing the New York style of Swing dancing to the
West Coast in 1938.
If you want to improve your dancing we highly recommend learning and
practicing Dean's Shim Sham routine. The steps and transitions might be
a bit tricky, but you won't improve by doing only the things that come
easily! They will break everything down so that you can be part of the
group the next time when Dean's Shim Sham is called.
Dean Collins died already in 1984, but this video includes interviews
with some of the best dancers like Leonard Reed Bart Bartolo, Bobby
Hefner, Freda Angela, Gil Bradey, Mary Collins, and Rusty Frank. Many of
them learned the routine by Dean Collins himself.

What is Boogie Woogie?
Boogie Woogie is a swing style which
has its roots in the European 6-count style of the 50’s Rock’n’Roll that
reflects the exuberant feeling of the rockin' fifties with its petticoats,
greasy hair, pony tails, and cool attitude. It is similar to the US East
Coast Style, but is richer in unique steps and moves that have inspired many
dancers and have been adopted in many other swing styles. oBogie Woogie is
famous for its hot, smooth, and exciting footwork and the emphasis on interpretation of
the music without fixed choreography. Today, Boogie Woogie is danced
both socially and in competitions mainly to original hot music of the late
40s and 50s (e.g. Boogie Woogie, Rhythm 'n' Blues, Rock 'n' Roll,
Rockabilly).
Boogie Woogie 2 is
addressed to the intermediate Boogie Woogie dancers, who know their
basics, but want to learn more. This instructional video offers a lot of
material and technique to improve the dancing and to increase the dance
vocabulary.
Every step is broken down and well explained. Marcus & Bärbl emphasize
lead and follow for each step and demonstrate them to music of different
speeds. Additionally most demonstrations can be watched from a different
angle.
As a special bonus there is a Jam of top Boogie Woogie dancers and
Champions recorded at many different places around the world.

DVD #12 - Charleston 1
(als VHS #6 bestellen) |
The
Charleston originated in the city Charleston, South Carolina. It came to New
York with the theater productions "Ziegfeld Follies" and "Running Wild"
(1922/1923) and inspired the people thereby. The novel twisting of the feet
and swinging of the arms to the impulsive rhythm of the music did the rest
to excite the masses. As the music changed and began to "swing" in the late
20s, Charleston progressed into the Break-Away and then into the Lindy Hop
(1928). Although Charleston steps continued as an essential part of the
Lindy Hop. The traditional twisting of the feet faded as there was more
focus on the kicks. Especially because of the partner dancing aspect of
Lindy Hop many new variations appeared. Still to this days Charleston steps
get a lot of attention when danced in the Lindy Hop.
Marcus & Bärbl continue in this video to teach you more fun and crazy
Charleston steps for Lindy Hop. To benefit from these moves you should have
a foundation in Lindy Hop and basic knowledge of Charleston steps in Lindy
Hop. As a bonus you can see Marcus & Bärbl jamming with other great swing
dancers and a
trailer a of the famous Rock
That Swing Festival in Munich run by Marcus & Bärbl

(als VHS #4 bestellen) |
Hollywood Style is a recent name for a great original style of Lindy Hop
that was danced in many Hollywood movies of the 40s and 50s. It was
introduced by Dean Collins on the West Coast around 1938. Dean learned to
Lindy Hop at Harlem's Savoy Ballroom and created a distinctive and
attractive style, which blossomed when he started dancing with Jewel
McGowan. Dean and Jewel along with many other dancers performed this smooth,
stylish, and energetic version in many movies significantly influencing
swing dancing back then and now. Hot swiveling girls and swing music created
a recipe that's hard to resist.
The video doesn't require any prior swing dance experience. It starts from
the beginning and continues into intermediate level. You will learn the
typical steps that form the character of Hollywood Style. Marcus & Bärbl
present a solid foundation and give you a feeling for the dance. They break
down every step and emphasize lead and follow. With this video you can
understand the basics of the dance and feel comfortable on the dance floor.
All of the steps in the World of Swing series are demonstrated to great
music that makes your feet wanna move.
As a special bonus you can see a Jam of top Boogie Woogie dancers and
Champions recorded at many different places around the world plus a
trailer and the teachers' jam of the famous Rock That Swing Festival in

Balboa was very popular among the College Kids in the mid 30’s and it is very popular again. Originally Balboa was a closed position swing form with intricate footwork predominantly based on 8-count patterns. But when the hot Swing music really hit the scene some of the younger dancers like Maxie Dorf and Lolly Wise added break-aways and swing turns to the Balboa, which nowadays is often referred to as Bal-Swing.
Balboa can be danced to any speed of music, from slow songs at 120 beats/min. till very fast ones at 300 beats/min. Pure Balboa is probably the easiest way to dance to fast swing music and enjoy it.
With Marcus & Bärbl and Steve & Denise you can learn from the best international renowned instructors. Steve & Denise won all major Balboa Championships in the US among them the National Balboa Championship 2001. They appeared in many movies and were headline instructors for one year at the famous Derby.

A simple Slow Slow Quick Quick is the secret of an exciting and cool looking 6-count swing dance from the 30s and 40s: The Shag.
Shag is easy to learn. With its hops and kicks it is a lot of fun. If you like to have close contact to your partner and still don’t want to miss the energy of swing than Shag is the dance for you. Mainly danced in closed position, but also with open and separating elements, Shag can be danced from medium to fast music.
Shag was spread all over America some years before Lindy Hop became popular and different styles were popular in different regions. This tape series is about the Double Time Shag that was danced a lot among the college students, which why it is often referred to as Collegiate Shag. It should not be confused with Carolina Shag or St. Louis Shag. Even it was a separate dance Shag can be easily mixed with other Swing styles.
Revived in the Los Angeles Swing scene Shag made a strong comeback since the early 90s and spread on the side of his dancing cousin the Balboa around the World. Shag is taught again at many international dance camps and workshops and has not lost its popularity.
