funky swing

AKA hip hop lindy -or swop

LindyHop continues to develop as a dance-form since there is no controlling body that can dictate what is or is not a legitimate move or style.
New dancers coming into the scene may have been the Hip Hop B-Boys and break dancers of just a few years ago and their influence continues to enhance and develop our beloved Lindy ;-)

Is this the future of LindyHop? Well maybe - it looks pretty cool. Probably bad news for the purists, but most dancers like innovation and new ideas that challenge and broaden our abilities.
Frankie Manning is know to have said "if it looks good, and it feels good, then it probably is good" and thats good enough for most Swing Dancers...
