What are the basics of West Coast Swing?
1 Answer
West Coast Swing's basics are pushes, passes and whips. In beginner classes, you'll focus on the sugar push and two pass variations: left-side pass and right-side pass (also called underarm turn). As it's an improvisational dance, connecting with your partner through stretch and compression is equally important.
