SHAG (BEGINNING)        Fee: $30
Enroll now and learn the dance of the South-the Carolina Shag. Since it's beginning, in the late '30s and early '40s at the beaches in North and South Carolina, the shag has spread throughout the country. Shag dancers have appeared on television on such shows as So You Think You Can Dance and Dance Fever. There is even a movie about it. Shag dance clubs are springing up all across the nation and there are now Shag clubs in all 50 states. College students are forming shag clubs on campus. Children as young as eight, teenagers, middle-age adults, and seniors are all getting into Shaggin'. The dance is similar to hand dancing, touch dancing, or swing dancing. The steps are smooth and rhythmic allowing individual dancers to work in partnership with one another. This course will include shag steps including the Basic step, the Female Turn, the Male Turn, the Start, the Pull Through, the Side Pass, the Chase, and the Saddle Up. The class will begin with the basic shag step, then progress on to the other steps which will make you feel confident and at ease on the dance floor. You don't need a partner. Find out why the Shag IS the premier dance of North Carolina and has been designated the state dance of South Carolina. So, stop watching everyone else have fun…Let's Shag.
