BASIC JIVE MOVES

Course Overview

This beginner-friendly Irish jiving course takes you from your very first steps right through to dancing confidently with a partner. In this 50-minute tutorial, each movement is broken down clearly and built up gradually, making it easy to follow even if you’ve never danced before. You’ll learn the core footwork, how to lead and follow, and key moves like the ladies turn and spin and swapping of hands.

There is an accompanying Spotify Playlist available for this course to help you as you learn.
