Ben and Torri Take the Stage by Storm with Their Flawless West Coast Swing Performance!

West Coast Swing is making waves as one of the most adaptable “vintage” dances around—perfect for everything from classic tunes to rap!

This timeless dance continues to shine, with dance schools across the nation keeping it alive, including talented duo Ben Morris and Torri Smith, who are known for their electrifying performances.

At the GPSDC Phoenix July 4th event, the pair stunned the audience and took home first place, leaving both spectators and critics in awe.

As soon as Ben and Torri step on stage, the crowd erupts in applause. Their moves, though seemingly improvised, are impressively smooth and effortless, showcasing their years of practice and precision.

Their video has racked up over 400K views, and fans are showering them with love. One commenter said, “Now that’s art…men and women growing like one! God’s amazing design,” while others expressed admiration, with one aspiring dancer even saying, “When I grow up, I want to be just like Ben.”

However, not everyone shared the same enthusiasm. Some viewers weren’t thrilled with the choice of music for such a classic dance, expressing disappointment over the modern beats accompanying the performance.

But many defended the duo’s decision, reminding others that music evolves, and dancing should evolve with it. If you don’t like the music, just mute it—the dance itself is still a masterpiece!

Ben and Torri’s performance proves that West Coast Swing is a dance for the ages, adaptable to today’s hottest music, while still honoring its roots. And as the judges saw, it’s an unbeatable combo that earned them first place.

While Ben runs California Swing Dancing and oversees Jack and Jill O’Rama, Torri now teaches dance in France. Wouldn’t it be amazing to dance like them? It takes dedication, but it’s totally worth it!
