Exciting Events: Swingvitation 2013 Teaser Trailer

Here it is! Presenting the official teaser trailer for Swingvitation 2013. I don't know about you but I think I shot out of my seat when I first saw the video. What's a Media student got to do when they see a nicely edited video? 
The video pretty much covered all the highlights that will be happening in Swingvitation 2013 from 25th to 28th April. I've previously written a blogpost on Swingvitation that covers more details on what's happening. The price for the full event pass is $435, and individual workshops are priced at $55. More info for the different party prices are coming soon. 
In the meantime, be sure to practice all the techniques and concepts in West Coast Swing to give yourself an edge for the J&J!

Exciting Events: Swingvitation 2013

Swingvitation 2013 - The Asian West Coast Swing Open is happening soon in Singapore!

Last year's Swingvitation took Singapore by storm with WCS champions Jordan Frisbee and Tatiana Mollman-Bennett leading the workshops and Chuck Brown guest judging for Jack & Jill competitions.


Next year would be bigger and better. Chuck, Jordan and Tatiana are returning to Singapore, along with Jessica Cox and Ben Morris, both of them WCS champions as well! Guest artistes from Australia, Brady & Libby, will be joining this event too.

From 25th to 28th April, there will be 20+ workshops and non-stop West Coast Swing parties all around. The J&J categories now feature points from the World Swing Dance Council, the first to happen in Asia, which means you can use these points to participate in international swing events with your accumulated points!

Early bird ticket price is at $390 SGD for a full pass, which will end at December 31. From then on, it's $435 SGD after the new year. You can get these tickets at Jitterbugs Swingapore or Mosaic Dance. But hurry! The studios close near the end of December and won't open again till the new year.

Video Vault: Swingvitation 2012

I can't seem to find some good West Coast Swing video tutorials in YouTube. Oh well, here's something to enjoy while I scout around with more specific keywords on the search bar, perhaps with a more specific technique on mind.

This was Jordan & Tatiana's opening performance for Swingvitation (which I unfortunately missed. Dag nab-it.) I really love their fluid motions in this choreography. It really fits their song choice too. Hopefully they can come down to Singapore again soon so I can catch them next time around (if my university work doesn't kill me)
