Swing dance
Lindy Hop, Balboa, Charleston, Collegiate Shag, and Charleston
Swing dance is a group of social dances that developed
with the swing style of jazz music in the 1920sā1940s, with the origins
of each dance predating the popular "swing era". Hundreds of styles of
swing dancing were developed; those that have survived beyond that era
include
Lindy Hop, Balboa, Collegiate Shag, and Charleston.
Today, the best-known of these dances is the Lindy Hop, which originated
in Harlem in the early 1930s. While the majority of swing dances began
in African American communities as vernacular African American dances,
some influenced swing-era dances, like Balboa, developed outside of
these communities.
