some music at Saturday Night Swing which is suitable for

Here are some recent videos of blues dancing
(note that these are mostly of performances and competitions which tend to

There are also Lindy Hop weekends with great blues dancing
not listed in this calendar, such as the Ultimate Lindy Hop Showdown in New
Orleans for
example.
