Shorty George

Description: Me doing the shorty george. I just liked my arm/leg/torso alignment in this shot - though the face does look slightly demented, hmm...

Never heard of the shorty george!

It's a jazz step popular in Lindy Hop. Basically you bend your knees and shoot them out to either side as you take small steps. Then there's styling like bending your torso, pointing with your arms, and rolling onto the outside edge of your outer foot with each step. Hm, a little difficult to explain online! Hope that makes sense.

Sounds difficult to do, as well. Haven't seen Lindy yet (except for the demonstration on DWTS a couple weeks ago).

It's not so hard, it just sounds a little unusual when you try and put it on paper! ;)
