Western Swing Dance steps
as described by Marge and Gower Champion
in their book "Let's Dance", 1953.
Western Swing was a term used for Country Western Swing Music. There really was no dance for it and most folks just did whatever style of swing dance they knew. However, the diagram to the left would really be a normal Lindy Rhythm (8 count) but patterns would be done as a 4 count, then repeat another four counts on opposite foot.
From Book "Let's Dance" by Bob Taylor
