	Swingout - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The date of the first true swing out is unknown, but was probably some time between 1928 and 1935.
		Counts 1, 2, 3, and 4 are identical to a normal swing out and counts 5, 6, 7, and 8 are identical to a reverse swing out.
		The first four counts are the same as a swing out, but the right arm wraps around the follow further, perhaps to her hip.

		Boogie Woogie is a swing dance that came from America to the continent in the 50's together with rock-n-roll music.
		Imperial Swing is danced to the same slow blues-flavored music as West Coast Swing and has the same sensual character but is not the same dance.
		Whenever Debbie Ramsey, an LA instructor and swing champion, is in town she very pointedly makes a distinction between push, which emphasizes arms, turning, and complex patterns, and WCS, which is built on a few basic steps and relies on an occasional pattern and a lot of syncopated footwork for zip and style.

	LA SWING & LINDY HOP! - SWING MUSIC AND DANCE TERMS (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		It is danced almost exclusively in closed dance position and most closely resembles a dance the natives of 1930’s Chicago called the “Shag”.
		The man is the center of attention (sometimes lending the appellate “peacock dancing” to the Shag) and the woman’s steps are either mirror steps of the man’s or a sort of marking time while he does spins and other wildness.
		It was danced to music (principally Swing) in fast duple meter ("8 to the bar") and was characterized especially by "breakaways" in which partners in a couple separated and improvised steps individually.

	Getting Back in the Swing
		DANCE FEVER - Dance partners Kassie Williams, right, and Jason Hunter, practice a few swing dancing moves during their lunch break at Palmdale High School.
		Swing Club president, senior Kassie Williams, said she learned about swing dancing at band camp when fellow band member and swing dancer, Steve Clayton, flipped her in an acrobatic swing dance move and she had fun doing it.
		It's hard to tell who is teaching whom a few swing dance moves at the Senior Expo in Lancaster, but judging by her fl- and-white wingtips and swing dancing outfit, it's a good bet that Palmdale High senior, Kassie Williams is the teacher on this dance floor.

	Hustle (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		Swing is 6 (or 8) counts per pattern, and the patterns end either at the end of a measure or halfway in a measure.
		For Hustle counted 12and3, the most overlooked aspect is that the woman's part in hustle is not a rock step but a _coaster_step; that is, her last two steps are "close-forward," not the "back-replace" of a rock step.
		Any hustle dance done by people who are not dance-studio trained, and are not doing NY Hustle in a recognizable manner.

		Hustle is not a form of swing dancing, rather its roots are in the hot Latin dances, with incorporated elements of several dance styles.
