Hand Dance, as it is affectionately referred to by Washingtonians, can be traced as far back as the 1920's, when Harlem gave birth to the Lindy Hop. From the Lindy Hop emerged the Jitterbug in the 30's and during the 50's DC developed its own version and named it Hand Dance. From the early 50's to mid 60's, Hand Dance was the hub of our Washingtonians dancing experience. It features hand holding and other forms of graceful embracing while executing simple to complex turns and moves. In the 80's, following an extended hiatus, Hand Dance resurfaced and has gradually moved to reclaim its place in the Washington dance community.
