8/24/2026 | 5m 50s
In this KERA Arts Doc, see how the Dallas Swing Dance Society is keeping swing alive in North Texas.
You don’t need years of dance experience to get into the swing. For many beginners, one lesson is enough to get them moving and having fun. Born in Harlem’s Black communities during the late 1920s, the Lindy Hop grew alongside swing music to became one of America’s most influential social dances. See how the Dallas Swing Dance Society is keeping the tradition alive in North Texas.
