Who is Chazz?
Chazz Young, a spectacular dancer with a long and successful stage career, was first inspired by his father, Lindy Hop master Frankie Manning. Today he tours worldwide, spreading the gospel of Lindy Hop and Tap. In addition to his work as a choreographer and performer, he teaches Lindy Hop in his home town of Las Vegas to the most important dancers of today: the young people who are just now learning to partner dance.

Is the Lindy Hop taught anywhere in Tx. And are you, Chazz the last of the line to be teaching it?
Hi Debbie,
Lindy Hop is taught in Texas as there is a big Lindy Hop weekend in February or March called Lindy Fest in Houston. I do not have any info on the studios or anything for Texas. I would just google things like “Lindy Hop in Texas”.
