Video Transcript

"Now that we have you in this clip we're going to take you into another style of hold instead of the traditional. It's a style we call this Swing hold, where your going to take you hands and lower them to waist height. And, that's just done with a simple hand gesture when the gentleman taking your hand taking this way with your partner and rolling it in down to waist. This way it just takes a little pressure, it makes a little more flowy as your dancing. And you can do that when you have your in closed dance position and you're dancing. One, two, three, two, two, three, three, two, three, four, two, three. One, two, three, two, two, three, three, two, three, four, two, three. And, then you can just lift that hand right back up into a traditional hold. So, there you have an option during the dance from going to a traditional hold to a swing hold to having a little more fun in variation in the Polka."
