The jitterbug is a very fast dance that started some time in the 1940's and the moves were unbelievable. You should really try to find a DVD of that dance. My parents would enter jitterbug contests and win trophies and I honestly don't know how they ever moved like that. You have to see it to believe me. The man picks the woman up in the air, twirls her, slides her on the ground, she goes under his legs and jumps up without missing a beat...and so on.
