The Swing Era Dance was a popular dance style in the 1930s and 1940s. It was characterized by its fast-paced, energetic moves and was often accompanied by swing music. Two of the most popular dances of this era were the Lindy and the JITTERBUG. The Lindy was a partner dance that originated in Harlem, New York and was characterized by its acrobatic moves and improvisation. The JITTERBUG was a solo dance that was more structured and featured intricate footwork. Both dances were extremely popular during the Swing Era and remain popular today.
