    A, V, or H Blues?

    I am sharing my classification, for comment. The letters roughly mimic the connection.

    "A" Blues is how I would classify the style that came through the Foxtrot Swing path, where the close hold is bosom to chest.

    "V" Blues is what I call the N&N style, where the connection is via the inner thigh. "Grind" -ish.

    "H" Blues is the more open "slow MJ" blues style, suitable for a class who are not all comfortable with UCP.

    All three styles can be used in one dance, but most seem to use an AH or an VH mix.

    I made a similar distinction/question in a poll, earlier, including A, V, and H:

    I even contributed -
    Apologies. Too much on my mind .... I did not recall.

    To be fair to myself, I had made the A,V, H connection for myself before your thread, but that was as far as I had gone.
