@pjdr61 There needs to be some standardisation on what the terms rockabilly, rock n roll, jive, swing etc mean. They seem to be totally interchangeable these days.
Jeeze somehow my response go lost in cyberspace. I guess my question should have been "what kind of dance is this?", since your title is a little vague.
I'm the developer for a site called idance-dot-net, and we teach all kinds of styles of dance, but I've never seen this style. It looks to me like a cross between jitterbug and zydeco. Where do people dance this?
lots and lots of people dance this!! GO to a Rockabilly FESTIVAL AND you'll see thousands of people dancing! Go to Spike's in L.A. and you'll see the dance floor crowded with people Jiving, same is true for the Bamboo Hut in San Francisco, for the GET HOT OR GO HOME in New York, for LIPG in Chicago...or for any festivals in Europe, you'll definetly see Jiving happening!

@KavKavanagh. I read the other comments and realised it is rockabilly - the penny dropped.

@pjdr61 ...Those of us in the know, know exactly what they mean. Some styles crossover but the music policies remain the same :)
