Lindy Hop, "the original swing dance," grew out of Charleston in the late 1920's and is traditionally done to music (ranging from slow to blazing fast) from the Swing Era. Related dances include Balboa, Shag, Jitterbug, and West Coast Swing.

I've been dancing, performing, and teaching lindy hop throughout the US and abroad for the past many years. Currently, I teach private lindy hop lessons in the Boston area, and my traveling schedule is below. For questions or to schedule a private lesson, please drop me an email.
