What is an 8 count?

What's an 8 count? Better yet, what are counts? How do you count them, anyway? And what does this have to do with dancing??

When you're just starting to learn how to dance, there are so many things that you don't know... And no one ever stops to explain them to you.

That's why we're making a whole series of videos on our YouTube – to answer those questions that all beginner dancers have but never get to ask.

This one is all about the 8 count in dance. We teach you what it is, how to count them, and how to use it when you're dancing.
