Jazz music is the music of America, and swing dance is the movement behind the music. Every day thousands of people in almost every city if the country, and all over the world are preserving it, innovating with it, and enjoying it. Those participating in the culture of swing are having a great time and making history.

Lindy Hop is the swing dance from the 30's, 40s and 50s, danced to Big Band Swing, Jump Blues, Jazz and early Rock 'n Roll. You may have seen it done in Swing Kids, or other movies... Jitterbug is a 1950s dance you may have seen in Swingers or in Big Bad Voodoo Daddy or Cherry Poppin Daddies Videos.

In Swing and Lindy Hop you will find swivels, aerials (air steps), kicks, rhythmic footwork, and energetic turns. Lindy Hop is street dance, done down low with bent knees and waist and open arms.

All styles of Swing can be danced very fast or very slow and everything in between. You can wear vintage fashions, or come as you are. Anyone can do it with the easy breakdown from National Champions Dan and Tiff of 23 Skidoo! Meet people, lose weight and be active!
