    latin africans in the carribbean along with Black Slaves in America put together the Jive…it has similar roots as the Samba and latin blacks in south america…im a professional dancer…learn to ride the horse a little better before you start showing your ignorance to everyone…your just going to embarrass yourself even further junior.

  2. mryou Says:

    Nobody can make …
    Nobody can make sense of that comment of yours. Jive comes from Swing/Rock’n'Role and a few other dances. It is a mixture of them. The Jive I was refearing to is the Jive from Latin Ballroom Dancing (5 Dances put together: ChaChaCha, Jive, Rumba, Samba and Paso Doble). So if you are saying Jive has its origin in a latin country you are wrong.

    I prefere the Jive (from latin ballroom dancing!!). Just because it is much faster, much harder to learn and much better looking …

    hm… I don’t …
    hm… I don’t really know what to think about Modern Jive… it’s easy of course but it looks kinda…. random? clumsy?
    Maybe I’m a little too much into the other dances to like MJ; it lacks a style…doesn’t it?

    lol… it’s derived …
    lol… it’s derived more from merang and rock n roll, than salsa…
    but who cares about what it’s from… the fact is.. it’s fun, it’s not difficult, so all you noobcakes who can’t do other styles of dance can learn it…
    issue though: what’s with the word easist… what does that mean?
    did they mean to say easiest?
    because it’s pretty easy to learn :P
    GO TO CLASSES, and stop dissing the dance.

    Why so many ignorant comments. Please read below before making a fool of yourself. This is not salsa or jive. It’s Modern Jive – it’s a dance style all of its own.

    This is not jive – nor does it claim to be. It is modern jive. No – you don’t “skip” you walk. Many people know this as ceroc. Ceroc is a company. Modern Jive is a dance.
