You need to train your Blues Grooves!
Grooving is using repetitive body actions or steps to illustrate rhythms and accents in the music.
For dancing WCS to medium and fast Blues music, the grooving is primarily lower body: footwork and legwork syncopations, variations, shapes, and rhythms.
Smart WCS dancers recognize that since Blues is a major historical influence in West Coast Swing history, studying it and mastering it is a cultural essential (and competitive advantage!)
