I'm trying to find if there's a special name for this particular style of pixel art? Is it from an actual 8 bit game or is it just a retro style that's been created recently? Are there any tutorials about learning this style? Templates? etc. Any information or help would be great.

1 pixel thin legs that get thicker near the thighs/hips.
1 or two pixels per foot, or no pixels.
no eyes.

There's no name for the style itself, but Superbrothers is the studio who started the trend afaik (Sword & Sworcery). It's not actually 8bit, just retro.
