West Coast Swing dancing is a very smooth style of dance. Unlike other styles of Swing, West Coast doesn’t have lifts, kicks, or jumps. It’s a more understated style that allows the dancers to improvise steps. West Coast Swing is generally done to medium tempo music, which is slower than its East Coast counterpart.
