St. Louis Shag is an up-tempo partnered swing dance that emerged in St. Louis, Missouri during the mid-1930s. As a derivative of partnered Charleston, Shag draws from African-American dance traditions and utilizes kicks, stomps, triple steps, quick steps, and more to create fun rhythmic ideas and iconic shapes.
In this workshop Bryan and Kerry will start with foundational steps and ideas of this regional swing dialect. Then, they'll show you transitions from shag into Lindy hop and charleston!
Finally they'll show you how we take lindy hop and charleston idea into shag, and vice versa!
