This makes me feel funny!

Attila Kobori & Leo Lorenzo compete at the Bavarian Open 2022, dancing to Janele Monae's Make Me Feel. [dance is ~2m30, there's info about the Open afteward, 3m21s total] Honestly, this happened in Munich just a few weeks ago and I find it thrilling to watch.

Oh that was great. What cute chemistry they have! I loved it.

Suppose I am not quite to the point, Covid-wise, of attending swing dance classes but would like to learn whatever I could from home. Any recommended YouTube videos, etc.? My partner is probably not ever going to be a willing participant so if there's a way to learn anything at all solo, that would be ideal.

I loved watching them really having fun, in addition to showing off their talent!

I think that’s the best WCS routine I’ve ever seen.

I love this! Fantastic combination of playfulness and precision.

I enjoyed it, but all of the competitors were dressed really casually. From watching competitions on PBS as a kid, and "Strictly Ballroom," (and I guess Dancing with the Stars), I was expecting costumes. Kind of miss that.

Similarly this is my recent favorite (links to more of the routine in their comments and bios). It’s an improv routine, so they didn’t even know what the song was going to be!
