Frequently asked questions

What is swing dance?

Also known as lindy hop, jitterbug, and east coast swing, it's a fun style of partner social dancing that is usually done to big band music, jazz and rock and roll and originated in the 1930s and has been danced ever since all over the world.

Do I have to know how to swing dance or have a partner to attend?

Absolutely not. Everyone is welcome and a quick beginner lesson will get you on your feet. Beginners are very welcome, as are solo attendees. You probably won't sit down all night!

How do I dress?

It's a casual and comfortable dance party. Visit our website https://www.got2lindy.com/student-resources/ for more information and tips on social dancing and how to be popular on the dance floor!
