    A as far away from Jive as possible cause tbh, it's not jive at all is it?

    Freestyle Partner Dancing. Because basically, that's what it is!!


    "Freestyle Partner Dancing" will at least serve me well when people ask me what I do even if we cannot convert the masses.

    How about 'Omni'?

    Good dancers will be Omni-potent. Hotshots would be Omni-scient.
    Yankers would be Omni-present.
    Omni-directional is a type of aerial...
