What is Lindy Hop?

Lindy Hop, the original swing dance, is a social dance that originated in the 1920s–40s at the Savoy Ballroom in Harlem, New York. Improvisational, playful, and highly rhythmic, this dance is defined by music of the Big Band era including Duke Ellington, Count Basie, Ella Fitzgerald, and Benny Goodman.
