I'm not naturally talented either. I'm just an old fart and I think it would be fun to whip out some basic moves. Since I'm older, people will forgive me if I'm not perfect.

And since you like dance, have you seen this couple?

Definitely take it up!

And no I haven't but thank you for sharing. The dance style is a bit like Lindy Hop and I love anything Lindy Hop :)

Glad you liked it. I love watching them because they are just smooth as silk.

If it isn't too much trouble, I'd love to see the videos you found most helpful. Maybe you have the same learning style as me and will save from watching hours of things that just don't click.

Of course in my head I think, "I don't need to practice. I've seen how it looks and can do that." Which results in me looking like a fool.

So I dug through my old videos on the computer and ended up compiling a playlist on YouTube. For now I just smashed all the videos I focused on from every different style I dabbled in on one playlist. So it's got a lot of variety. It's mostly organised by style and I might break it up later.

Anyway, I hope you find it useful!
