Swing Dances
What Is Swing Dancing?
The roots of swing dancing can be traced back to the American Jazz Era, which began in the 1920s. Swing dancing encompasses a wide variety of unique partner dances, including the Lindy Hop, East Coast Swing, West Coast Swing, Jitterbug, Jive, Boogie-Woogie, Carolina Shag, and others. When you think about swing dancing, think of a highly-social dance with lifts, spins, and flips – while not always incorporated into these fun and fast-paced partner dances, they are often included. As a fast-paced, quick dance style, swing dance is primarily performed in a particular spot instead of moving across an entire dance floor like ballroom dancing.
