West Coast Swing and Country 2 Step is what brought me to this site looking for improvement, and I found it. Now my newest favorite is Salsa and Bachata and somehow Salsa has taken over as my favorite. I have used this site as a beginning tool and springboard into the new to me dances, I'm 73 but still kicking, and I am loving it. Thanks to everyone there at West Coast Swing and Social dance online. I promote you whenever I can.

when the video plays and is finished, I might want to replay it but I can no longer do that without going back to the beginning and selecting the video, Why not?

I guess that I am "Splitting Hairs" or being unreasonable, but I learned a long, long time ago in a galaxy far, far away that on the WHIP step the (1,2,3&4) the (3&4) is a Quick Quick Slow and a Forward Coaster step or a Back-together-Forward. The stepping forward on the 4 is a / the redirect for the follower and that they /she / he / whatever should continue forward until stopped, turned, again redirected.  What is the consistent idea out there?

I am almost sure that somewhere here with all of the fantastic videos WCS Online has, I saw this "Anchor" variation executed from the Whip step. I am looking for it - any ideas where?

Whip Step, stalker / walking along rail on the 5,6. One last triple (7&8) the leader steps across the slot (7) and rotates the Follower 1/2 turn (&8) now headed in the opposite direction.

Two positions - Shadow vs Sweetheart. I "Think" that they are very if not so similar that they are interchangeable. What does (SDO) feel about this? What is the difference? 🤔

I am looking for the video on the line dance in WCS that was done with Brian B and Mario R. It was at a dance event maybe?

I have been ask to teach an East Coast Swing class on Friday night so I am using your syllabus, Level I & II, to review and refresh my rarely used past experience for a style that has been demoted for a more recent choice of "Ballroom" which I am currently enjoying.

I use to sit during a Waltz and enjoy an adult beverage, but now that I have mostly learned the Beginner and Secondary Syllabuses I can’t seem to find the time for a drink!
A positive dilemma for sure.

I use it in the Tango, but I think that it would work in the Rumba also. The Slow and then two Quicks (4&1, 2,3)back up on the next Slow (4&1) and side step on on the Q, Q (2,3). Am I macking stuff up [MSU] Universaty!
