Welcome
Welcome to the Jam Cellar Video Blog. Here we will post links to different dance clips that we either find interesting, enlightening, or just plain fun.
Watching video clips can really help dancers learn and can be really inspiring. Most dancers that have been around for a while have had a phase where they were addicted to clip watching. Some take it pretty seriously, but that's not necessary.
Luckily, thanks to all the video sharing sites out there now (YouTube, Google Video, MySpace Video) you don't have to go trading copies of worn out VHS tapes with your friends as much anymore.
We will give you a bit of context for the clips, but will try to keep the jibba-jabba to a minimum.
However, we do know that these clips can be pretty hard to watch because of the shoddy quality of them and the technological medium, so we suggest you check out these places where you can, for a VERY small fee, have them in DVD or VHS format:
Original Jitterbugs

This huge collection is well worth it the 15 bucks. If you are in a hurry, you can download it here.
SavoyStyle.Com's Collection
http://www.swingdanceshop.com/
This is where I purchased all my collection of old clips. They have so much here. I highly suggest you support these guys.
Anyhow, we hope you enjoy this blog.
