Thanks to Nathan Bugh for being my leader in this video. When someone's learning how to dance, it's easy to think that quantity of moves is how you get better, but I would argue that after you have a few basics, exploring what can be done with a single move is an excellent way of creating variety and ownership. In this video, we'll be covering the tuck turn from closed position. We'll talk lead & follow technique, and go over some specific examples and show some Nathan specialties.

50% of the money made from this channel is donated to organizations that support African Diasporic art forms, because Lindy Hop is a Black dance, and preserving and cultivating Blackness is very important to its identity. My current charities are:
