Modern Jive - Dance Moves

Dance Moves

While all these forms of Modern Jive have Swing and Rock-and-Roll dance moves in common, moves from many forms of dance including Salsa and Tango may be included, according to the specific franchise or even the particular dance teacher. Because of its eclectic nature there are hundreds of moves and variations that can be learnt, introduced or adapted.

Although dance routines are developed and rehearsed for competitions, Modern Jive is most frequently danced freestyle, providing additional challenges to more advanced dancers in terms of musical interpretation and expression.

Famous quotes containing the words dance and/or moves:

    Night is juba, night is conjo.
    Pretty Malinda, dance with me.
    Robert Earl Hayden (1913–1980)

    Only beauty purely loving
    Knows no discord,

    But still moves delight,
    Like clear springs renewed by flowing,
    Ever perfect, ever in them-
    Selves eternal.
    Thomas Campion (1567–1620)
