Frankie Move #6 - Around the World with Points

Описание: A whole week of Frankie Manning's favorite moves!

Frankie Fact of the Day:
Frankie was the first lindy hopper to adopt a more bent-over posture while dancing. Until then, the lindy hoppers at the Savoy Ballroom had an upright stance carried over from the dances predating lindy hop, which matched 1920s music. As swing music changed and smoothed out, Frankie decided that bending at the waist gave him room to do fancy footwork and move his whole body to the music. He started stretching out his movements to make them more exciting, like kicking backwards and reaching forward. Many of the Savoy dancers also adopted this idea.

Dancing is an amazing way to get your body moving! But if you're looking to become a better dancer, dancing often and learning moves/technique/rhythm are only parts of the equation- strength and endurance also play a huge role. As both a dancer and a strength coach, I know how strength training has made a huge difference and helped me feel empowered as a dancer.
