Staten Island Ballroom Dancers - Instructional Videos

Swing dancing is a lively style of social dancing in which a dancer often lifts, spins and flips his or her partner. Considered both hip and cool, swing dancing is a favorite among social dancers of all ages.  Swing is a non-progressive dance performed in one spot, so it's very convenient on a crowded dance floor.
