UChicago/Java Jive, Epiphany Center for the Arts, The Drake Hotel and Summerdance are my favorites. Each venue offers an opportunity to dance with experienced, familiar, novel and novice dancers. The vibe of the dance's beginning varies from curiosity to excitement. How the dance begins may give you some idea of the Lead/Follow connection. Smoothness, clarity, playfulness and musicality can heighten the animation and ease of the dance.
Pairing each dancer's skillset & understanding of the dance shape creates an energetic connection. The speed and intricacy of certain dance steps e.g., Texas Tommy, Sliding Door, Tandem Charleston, Crossovers, etc. can promote a high-spirited response. The flow of the dance sequence makes way for more merriment and well-being. [Sadness, have a seat.]
Live or recorded music has familiar endings which aids the rhythmic closure of the dance and mood of the couple. Familiarizing oneself with the typical endings of various Jazz standards allow for embellished and familiar dance closures, as well. Often, the post-dance exchange includes high fives, hugs or rushed acknowledgements of appreciation of the dance.
An evening of Swing Dance can prove to be a thrilling adventure! See you on the Dance Floor!

The sight of two empty chairs triggered a gentle curiosity and thought today. Intuitively, I imagined what would be the symbiotic relationship, emptiness, stability and/or possibility of their message. I envisioned two people seated next to each other with visible discomfort. Furrowed brows, upper body tension and avoidant eye patterns were evident. I sensed and interpreted, Shamanically & Energetically, the history of their relationship and communication issues.
Concomitantly, I felt the symbolic usage, positioning and likelihood of their presence:
