LindyHop

LindyHop to many is the original Swing. The Lindy includes
both 8-count and 6-count step and rhythm patterns. Most swing
dancers today are using Lindy Moves that date back to 1920s Harlem.

In the 1920s it was called the Hop. It was danced to the music being developed by the newly formed big bands. It became known as the lindbergh Hop, or Lindy Hop (now just Lindy), after Charles Lindbergh made his trans-Atlantic solo airplane hop in 1927.
