These are all American Vernacular dances, and Swing Walk is the version of Foxtrot danced for most of the 20th Century.  In fact, Swing Walk is the *other* dance people danced to Lindy music back in the day.  Paulette Brockington, who runs the American Lindy Hop Championships,  is our special guest instructor.
