We present a theory for the low-frequency, long-wavelength dynamics of soft
smectic-C elastomers with locked-in smectic layers. Our theory, which goes
beyond pure hydrodynamics, predicts a dynamic soft elasticity of these
elastomers and allows us to calculate the storage and loss moduli relevant for
rheology experiments as well as the mode structure.
