In my experience we usually dance Levi Jackson Rag a little more zestily than was shown in the video referenced earlier. Have a look at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-l8OjD-1464 Though that is maybe a little bit fast :-) But notice also how they do the balance before the swing. I was taught Levi Jackson Rag in the 1960s and that's how we were taught then and how I have always seen it danced over here: Step, Kick, Step, Kick Happy dancing, John John Sweeney, Dancer, England john(a)modernjive.com 01233 625 362 http://www.contrafusion.co.uk for Dancing in Kent
