You can find a whole ton of Lindy Hop clips (including tutorials) on the wonderful YouTube. If you go to:
http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=lindy&search=Search
It should immediately produce a few interesting results. I personally love the Lindy Hopping scene from A Day At The Races featuring the Marx brothers, which can be seen at:

the Lindy Hop came out of Harlem in the late 20's named after Charles Lindburgh and his flight (hop) across the Atlantic.
After Lindburgh became known as a Nazi sympathizer the dance name was changed to the Jitterbug.
The dance was so popular there was a Jitterbug dance scene in the Wizard of Oz (1939) ... but was eventually cut from the movie.
The Jitterbug became iconic in our minds from the dance movies about the '50's -- poodle skirts and letter sweaters, echoed in cartoons and pop culture and the movie Dirty Dancing.
So ... the Swing dancing had a brief revitalization thanks to a Gap commercial and the Stray Cats, lol.
Knowing all this: it should now be easy to find the dvd's you are looking for!

I don't know who you are but if you are in primary school there is a website called Espresso and search in the Lindy Hop or if you're an adult then just go to choices and have a look

do no longer plop a 2-twelve months previous in front of the television observing dvds. that's in basic terms basic stupid. Why do no longer you're taking a while to instruct him your self. that is plenty greater relaxing and you will bond in an exceptionally particular way. television is undesirable for infants...or have not you examine the analyze?
