What is the Lindy-Hop?
Traditionally danced to Big Band music, Lindy-Hop is the granddaddy of
all swing dances. West Coast Swing and East Coast Swing originated from
the Lindy-Hop. Named for Lindbergh's famed transatlantic flight in 1927,
the Lindy began in Harlem ballrooms such as the famous Savoy Ballroom in
the late 1920's and reached the height of its popularity in the Swing
Era of the 1930's and 40's. Thanks to the teaching of original Lindy
Hoppers like Frankie Manning, Norma Miller, and the late Al Minns, Lindy
is enjoying a resurgence in popularity and can often be seen danced in
clubs today. If you are watching dancers creatively improvising to the
music with a lot of kicking steps, you are probably watching the Lindy-Hop.
This dance is done worldwide so you'll be able to find Lindy Hoppers
everywhere from California to New York to London to Sweden! Paul and
Sharon teach the Savoy Style Lindy-Hop which is the style of Lindy-Hop
danced in the 1930's.
