Lindy Hop
Icelandic lindy hoppers have formed their own society,
Lindy Ravers, which organises social gatherings and
dance rehearsals for swing dance enthusiasts in Reyk-
javík. Lindy Hop was born in the swingin’ jazz clubs of
Harlem in the 1930s but has gained huge popularity in
recent years. Icelandic lindy hoppers meet twice a week
to train in Hitt Húsið, but every Sunday they meet up at
Kaffi Rót for social dancing. A beginners workshop starts
Tuesday, March 11. For registration details and further
info on lindy hop in Iceland, visit: www.lindyravers.com
