[HOWTO] Awsome Lindy Hop Vids

You know what? This isn't one of those, "Hey there's a dance" posts, why? because I haven't got permission to post it on my blog yet. But! hopefully they will answer my e-mail soon, in the meantime, I would like to show you guys some awesome videos that I have found in my ballroom searching habit, some are really good!

First off, we have these Lindy Hop instructional clips.

Quite frankly, the instruction here is awesome, but there's a trick, and I can't push this hard enough: YOU WON'T LEARN IF YOU DON'T GET UP AND DANCE. Yeah I know you just came to this blog thinking no dancing was required, no standing for that matter, no moving, no exercise, no life, BUT! you where sadly mistaken! (except for the last one, depending on how you define "life")

So stand up, right now, Yup you heard me, stand up, nope, yeah sure that's real funny, just laugh at the screen, say to yourself what you may but geting better requires action, here and now, and yes these videos aren't the quick and easy way, BUT they are great advice that really works and results is what matters right?

Did you do it? Good, now we've experienced something, you feel better about yourself huh, chest puffed up in pride and all that. As for you sitters, I hope your hiding your face in shame.

Second we have some incentive to learn/get better at Lindy Hop
I apologize that the girl is immodest in her dress, but it's just too good dancing to not show.

NOTE: Do not try lifts without a trained spotter

No December Villa Dance.

Mark, the person that hosts for the villa swing dance (talked about in the previous post) told me today that they will not be having a dance in December, but the next one will be in January.


I admit, that I'm a bit disappointed but then again it is pretty close to the holidays and people do get busy around then.
just wanted to tell you guys,

December Villa dance (NEXT IN JANUARY ACTUALLY)

Description: Yeah I know, December January is sort of a long time away, it's true, but all the same, you really can't miss this opportunity, so get ready for this, just say to yourself, "I will not miss the fun of the swing night at the Villa, because I wish to have fun, meet people, get exercise and meet new people" (now you should really be doing this by the way, look in a mirror if it helps, saying it in a passionately concerned tone, you can even imagine your on some medicine ad if that helps the imagery).

But anyway, I'm not even joking, I went last time and I seriously think that it was the funnest dance I have ever been to. How many people where there? let's see... about five people my age and about five adults (not all of them even danced) do you think that stopped us from having fun? Heck no! With high tempo swing music blasting we lindyed, Charlestoned, and swinged the night away, all left with smiles on our faces, not one person wasn't comeing away from it saying, "We HAVE to do that again" Oh yeah, another interesting note, we had more guys then girls this last time, what's up with that? So girls! Don't be shy I know that your out there and love to dance, recommended you'll get asked by many guys.

I'll have to get some footage of the swing dance with my phone next time so you guys can see how awesome it is, no promises though.

I could simply, rant and rave about it and you could just sit there, and think, Oh my gosh, this kid is crazy? seriously how fun could it be? but what can I say? I'm not getting payed or anything, I just love dance and I think you'd enjoy it too.

Hey for all you people that are somewhat under educated, get ready for the funnest education you've ever got as you see how Lindy hop should truly be done.

These are professionals I admit, but all the same, it's lindy, and you don't need to be near that good, to enjoy it.

By the way, this dance is every 2nd Saturday (exempt this December) from 6 to 9pm at the villa Coffeehouse, casual dress, $2 a person 3$ a couple.

See you there,
-Mr.Brightside
