Where can I learn swing "line dance" styles?

I've seen line dance styles for med swing songs, but I've never been anywhere where it is taught. I know that the regulars down at the Crystal Ballroom in Portland do this style. My original impression was that it was very down low to the ground, almost to the point where it looked like the dancers were drunk (they'd almost fall over, but they'd catch themselves).

Does anybody know what this style of swing/jazz dance is called? I'm eagerly interested in learning and adapting on this style. Please let me know what online or published resources are out there for me to utilize concerning swing "line dance" styles (for the lack of knowing a better term).

Only one I know of is the Shim Sham Shimmy. If there is a local swing club in your area they probably do this and will teach it.
