Learn to Jive the easy way 😇
“Down On Your Uppers” Line dance.
Nice handy line dance that will suit pretty fast music. Starts with a rock step, two heals, step out with an in-out-in on both sides, little twist with a right heal and hitch up, step and tap on right and left, step behind step, right first and turn anti-clockwise when doing the left and start all over 😊
Thank you for watching and happy dancing😊

Tricky, but well worth it! Advanced Jive Routine
Просмотров 404День назад
Bit tricky this one. You’ll need to be Jiving to work it all together but if not, do one move at a time. Everything I show is for everyone :-) We start off here with a reverse left hand figure of 8. When returning the gal, pedal to the metal on the way down, changing from left to right keeping up her momentum going and not letting her back step. Then leaving her right hand on your back to slide...
Great 5 move Jive Combination !!
Просмотров 303День назад
Here we have a great Jive combination with 5 very usable moves. Starting with a reverse right hand figure of 8, straight into a right hand shuffle, then swinging out and returning into a left hand figure of 8, left to right hand change and finishing off with a right hand shoulder slide. Seems a lot but I find this very easy to remember as we are turning anti-clockwise for everything except the ...
“Country Mix” linedance
Просмотров 7442 месяца назад
This line-dance is doing the rounds at the dances and is a big favourite with all the stampers! Jiving Country with Damien & Katie is where we saw it so big thanks to them for this. Has a bit of Charleston, K-Step, Rock Steps, Pigeon Toe and other bits thrown in. It can be danced to pretty quick music but I’ve picked a calmer song by Patrick Feeney here to get you started. Happy dancing 🕺 Decla...
Nice double hand Jive move with a few extras.
Просмотров 1 тыс.2 месяца назад
Here’s a great Jive routine that anybody can do starting with double hands and two halo turns anticlockwise & clockwise, waist turn, swing out, left hand figure of 8 with a back turn. ( one of my favorites! ) Easy to do with anyone so that’s always a bonus! Happy dancing 🕺 Declan & Nuala
Double hand moves for Jive
Просмотров 7173 месяца назад
There are so many double handed moves used now in Jive it was hard to fit them all in. They are really pretty easy to learn but I have to say that how you pick up the girls left hand to get into a double hand position is so important. I’ve explained it as clearly as possible the way I learned it while doing swing dancing in the UK & US and they are very technical when it came to things like thi...
Country Charleston
Просмотров 6103 месяца назад
When the music gets too fast for your slosh’s and electric slides ect, don’t panic! Switch to the country Charleston and it will calm it right down. And as a bonus, when the music is too slow, it livens it up! So you’re covered for every type of song, anywhere, in any situation. Voila!! Happy dancing 😊 Declan
Flat Hand Push in the Jive.
Просмотров 4653 месяца назад
I’ve covered this before and it didn’t really click with our Country Jivers, but I’m here again and highly recommend this very R ‘n’ R style move that I learned from Kav Kavanagh over in London some years back. It does need a slight change for the girls staying with our hand after the the flat hand push but everything else remains the same. It can follow with any right hand move but the “back s...
Gals Irish Country Jive Steps.
Просмотров 1,5 тыс.3 месяца назад
These Jive steps will slow down all the head spinning and free up the lads to do all their fancy stuff. Learn it slowly, making sure not to travel back on your back steps and to turn in on your first step up the dance slot/track.
“Cotton Eyed Joe” line dance.

“Cotton Eyed Joe” is a great old classic line dance but once you can recognise all the other songs that it works perfectly to, you’re away in a hack, yah-whooing in the pub, party, club wedding ect.
The Rock ‘n’ Roll Waltz (Slow Waltz line dance)
Просмотров 1,6 тыс.3 месяца назад
The R ‘n’ R waltz is a slow waltz line dance. It’s very popular and once you know the general direction to go, you can add the waltz step later.
To swing, or not to swing. That is the question. All Jivers need to know the answer 😊

There are two different ways of returning a girl from Shuffles & Waist turns in the Jive. Swing out & return, and high lead. It’s not a a north west south or east thing. Neither is it exclusive to any style, although much more common with Rock ‘n’ Rollers. There could be two sisters or brothers in the same house using different returns. What is certain though is that if you’re going to be Jivin...

Originally a Scottish dance but it’s now the National line dance of Ireland. A favorite with the bands also as it’s guaranteed to get everyone on the floor. Here I’ll show you a very easy way to learn “The Slosh” and also some nice variations that u see used all over the country. Happy dancing 🕺 Declan

Hi Declan, this is brilliant footage! There is a great sense of community. I’m a songwriter and have written a song about Wexford. I want to create a video to accompany it and your footage would be a perfect addition to it. Could I please ask your permission to use this? I would give credit in the description when the video is uploaded. Regards, Emer
Great stuff 👏
What a waste of three minutes. This is not the Slosh
I’m from Glasgow. That’s not how we do The Slosh. You must have been wrecked when the music finished.
c'est dans quel cirque ??? 🇨🇵🖐️
If this great tune does get ya moving, nothing will.
MJ the fun band! One and only! Ray Dorset is an incredible muso with a fantastic band, lots of should have been hits on the charts! Seriously overlooked!
Exelente
Well now I see what fuels Irish folks pride of themselves.
Dancing with Declan love to

Well, I have just seen this, I,87 years old it is not the slosh I know or everyone I know, but I suspect it an authentic Scottish version,, I have been a Ballroom dancer & other kinds since 1946, You two as a couple with this version are very good.
Very nice break down and nicely demonstrated. Not sure why the down votes. This video dose what it says on the tin. I'm of to practise.
Maybe he is slightly on fire, but he's free!!
i liked this song so much i searched how to dance to it
Just learned this dance in like 3 minuets, and i can't stop dancing now.

Thanks very much Declan...have been meaning to learn the Slosh for ages, just came across your vid and am delighted....it’s very good...spent the last 30 mins practicing with you, am totally unfit, so this is just the thing to kick start me! Keep it up! Thanks a mil God bless!!
Hi Catherine😊 thank you very much for your kind words. I’m 1963 as well by the way😆
Mmmmmmmmmmm ..... Would it have been an “idea” to add a tincy wincee smigeeen of music to your demo?
Would it have been an “idea” for you to watch all the video? Because if you did you would see the Slosh being danced to “Beautiful Affair” by Joe Davitt & his Band😊
Aww Brilliant
