Modern Jive Dunedin

Modern Jive Dunedin Modern Jive is the evolution of modern partner dancing, and can be danced to songs from the greatest hits, to the latest top 100 songs.

Modern Jive is a dance style in its own right, although it adopts moves from other dance styles like West Coast Swing, Salsa, Ballroom & Latin etc. Modern Jive has many variations and is continually evolving into different trends, styles and fashions, however the dancers from all these variants are still able to dance together. The key to understanding Modern Jive is the beginner moves, these 20-

plus moves continually reinforce the ‘absolutes’ to the dance (the consistencies that allow modern jive dancers to dance together, despite their preferences).
