Savoy Style

What is Savoy Style?


1.

The original form of Lindy Hop, the partner dance that accompanies swing jazz.

So named because the pioneers of the dance, such as Frankie Manning and Whitey's Lindy Hoppers, were regular dancers at the Savoy Ballroom in Harlem.

Those cats are crouching too low for Hollywood style, they must be doing Savoy style. They're really swingin'!
