Latin Dance Lesson

http://www.carlcharlesdance.com First & second clips are the ” Baila Morena ” JiveNation routine choreographed by Susie Kable. This was videoed at a JiveNation friday night event in May 2007 in very Central London. It is danced by Susie Kable & Jamie Wilson.
Second clip was at the ” workshop in a day ” lesson, teaching the same routine.
Third & final cip is Diane Moody & Carl Charles doing a West Coast swing routine* somewhere in the US ( * I think that is correct dance description though it could be a HUSTLE ? )
I have taken this clip from Carl Charles’s website at :
