That's actually a really good idea! (Although in swing dancing, it's a lot harder work being the man because you lead, while the woman follows.) Also, the touching thing is getting better with time. It bothered me less the second time I went.

oh I agree - the same with Salsa, Tango and many other dancing styles. But doing that part sure gives you a better idea of what the dance is really like - and you can even better anticipate the man's lead if you know how leading feels from the other side. :)
