Thanks for the clarification! Another YTer said that “jitterbug” was a derogatory term used for uninformed people who didn’t know how to swing dance very well …. which confused me, because my WWII sailor dad & my mom - who were outstanding dancers and obviously of that era - called it that!

That is super cool about your parents!

Interesting. In Germany I was taught that this is "single-time boogie". Any insights on the differences?

[@SocialDanceOnline]

Oh very interesting. It has been called single time swing, jitterbug, and many other names. I like single time boogie!

[@DrPapufu8923]

They call it the boogie woogie here in Vienna too!
