thumb|Couples dancing Swedish bugg Bugg is a common dance style in Sweden and is very popular on the dance floors when dansbands play. Bugg is a dance in time and performed at different paces (120–180 beats per minute). Bugg is a partner dance and follows certain basic rules, but is essentially improvised, with one partner following the other's lead. Acrobatic moves are not allowed on national or international dance competitions. Swedish bugg belongs to the swing dance family and closely resembles modern jive.
