MJ Hall of Fame - Robert Austin

[Andy McGregor]

Mr Robert Austin is never far from controversy and was the pioneer of Modern Jive competitions and claims to be the first person to name our dance "Modern Jive".

If you are talking about the origins of the modern jive then one has to read the "LE ROC" handbook , this should answer many of the popular misconceptions..It is a very enlightening read..I have a copy, but am not prepared to quote chapter and verse from it........I believe its author should be in the hall of fame. What say you?????

This is the Robert Austin Hall of Fame thread. Is the author of the LeRoc handbook Robert Austin? Or is it someone else who should be in the MJ Hall of Fame with his/her own thread?
