Lindy Hop is the ORIGINAL swing dance, evolving out of the Charleston and other big-band-era dances starting as early as the 1920’s. Lindy uses 8-count basic footwork similar to that of West Coast swing, also incorporating 6-count charleston patterns and leaving a ton of room for improvisation and personal flair. What really sets it apart from other forms of swing is its versatility and the general exuberance with which it is performed!
