The Princess Dip
This stylish Country Swing dip combines a smooth lift, solid technique, and just the right amount of flair. In this lesson, Anthony and Rose break down The Princess Dip (Also know as the Low Lift Dip)—a move that blends a supported lean with a compact lift, without ever going overhead. It’s a move that looks impressive but stays safe and manageable when done correctly, making it a great addition to any intermediate dancer’s toolkit. You’ll learn how to position your body, how to time the entry, and how to support your partner’s weight using proper leverage rather than brute strength. The key is all in the setup: from the roll-in and frame to leg placement and center alignment, this move relies on control and clear connection. Leaders will also learn how to rotate the upper body to lower and return smoothly, while followers learn how to hold shape, kick without force, and finish gracefully. Safety tips, partner communication, and even common mistakes are all addressed. Whether you're dancing at a honky tonk or preparing for a performance, the Low Lift Dip adds elegance, excitement, and just the right amount of drama to your dance. This one’s a crowd favorite—give it a try!
