Jitterbug Basic Step - Jitterbug (East Coast Swing) Basic
Skip to contentPrevious Next
Jitterbug Basic
The jitterbug basic uses the same pattern for all three rhythms of the East Coast swing. Swing dancing used single, delayed single and triple rhythms. The only difference is how many weighted steps are used for the for the side steps on counts 1,2 & 3,4. The jitterbug is also called single rhythm East Coast swing. This form of swing is a popular form that goes back to the 1930’s & 1940’s.
Swing dancing has evolved since it began in the 1920’s with the Lindy hop. The East Coast swing is often taught in dance studios. The East Coast swing has three rhythms: single, delayed single and triple rhythm.
The rhythms are named by the number of weighted steps are taken for two beats, so single rhythm equals one weighted step for two beats of music. The single rhythm East Coast swing is a generic, simple form of swing dancing that some people call jitterbug. Other forms of swing dancing have used this term in the past. Here Pattie Wells does a quick review of the basic step pattern for the single rhythm East Coast swing (jitterbug). The step pattern is referred to as the jitterbug basic.
Jitterbug Basic (transcript):
Hello I’m Pattie Wells at DanceTime.com. We’re going to do the jitterbug basic today. The jitterbug, we call it the jitterbug, another term for this dance is single rhythm east coast swing. Single rhythm because we are taking a single weighted step per two beats. So, here’s the basic step starting out with the lead part.
Jitterbug Basic Lead Part:
The lead is going to move (step) to the left using a touch- right, then to the right touch-step.
And a small breaking action known as a rock-step, the count is 1,2 3,4, 5,6 .
Jitterbug Basic Follow Part:
For the follow part, we start with the right foot, we move (step) to the right step-touch, then left step-touch finish with rock- step.
Jitterbug Technique:
And if you are a beginner you might want to do your rock step by just placing the ball of the foot back (not the heel) and then replace on the front foot , ball flat, so you don’t fall back to far. We use a little cushion in the knees when you step off and we do the same thing on the ball flat.
So for the jitterbug, we’re going to go side- touch, side- touch then rock- step. Now, if the song is fast we can eliminate the touch and just go step (two beats), step (two beats), rock- step, step, step, rock- step. So, the touches are just marking time, it’s a nice way to make sure your doing something on every beat of music. That’s why I prefer it (using the touches to mark the music) and have taught it that way for the last 30+ years.
Thank you for checking into DanceTime.com, my name is Pattie Wells, hopefully I’ll see you on the dance floor.

First, like this. Where do you put your hands?
So from any dude you will get kicked in the teeth.
Well, on the right foot. Hold on straight let's go!
Move your feet and don't open your mouth!
Freer. Like this. And two steps forward.
Now sit down lower... and turn!
I love boogie woogie,
I love boogie woogie
I love boogie woogie
I love boogie woogie
I love boogie woogie, I boogie woogie every day.
To become a real dude,
You need, buddy, to dance normally.
You must know what "Canadian" style is -
Everything is serious here, this is not a polka, not a square dance.
There is "atomic", there is also "Hamburg triple" -
Try to learn, boy, you're groovy!
Do you like boogie-woogie,
Do you like boogie woogie
Do you like boogie woogie
Do you like boogie woogie
You love boogie woogie, you boogie woogie every day.
This is a jitterbug, this is rock and roll
You must not distinguish where the ceiling is, where the floor is
And if you get tired, then sit down, but not for long
You started dancing, why sit around doing nothing?
Hear this rhythm and feel this drive
So you are free to dance - what a thrill!
We love boogie-woogie.
We love boogie woogie.
We love boogie woogie.
We love boogie woogie.
We love boogie woogie, we boogie woogie every day.

Bacaklarınızı hareket ettirin ve ağzınızı açmayın!
Freer. Bunun gibi. Ve iki adım ileri.
Şimdi otur... ve don!
