Swing, also known as East Coast swing, lindy, lindy hop, jitterbug, or rock and roll, is one of the hottest, most popular of all partner dances.
Its simple structure and footwork along with playful moves and styling make it well-loved for its forgiving and fun-loving nature; swing is danced to slow, medium, or fast tempo jazz, blues, or rock and roll, and is frequently played at every imaginable social event.
The origins of swing began in the 1920's with the Charleston, tap dancing, and some now obsolete partner dances like the Breakaway.
Soon it evolved into Lindy Hop, (named for Charles Lindberg's transatlantic flight) and exploded in Harlem at the Savoy Ballroom in the late 1920s and 30s. Swing dancing is the best drug-free mood elevator known to humankind.
