Eggbeaters - Vernacular Jazz Explained

Показать описание

Eggbeaters are fun, energetic, an easy fit for fast tempos, and naturally fancy. The powerful twisting motion is perfect for strengthening proprioception and stamina. Eggbeaters can be blended with so many other vernacular jazz moves to add complexity and dynamic range. In this video, we cover the basic concept of eggbeaters, some fun ideas of how to improvise within eggbeaters, and some classic variations. I hope you enjoy it!

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:

As a trained b-boy, it does remind me of a top rock (the Indian step), though it is obviously different in style.

Do you have a link to someone doing top rocks? There are a ton of YouTube but I'm not sure they're what you mean:
