Boogie Woogie Thematics
BOOGIE WOOGIE WITH KARSTEN & KATHRIN— 4 CLASSES
Boogie Woogie is a high-energy social and competition dance that evolved from the swing family. It emerged in Europe during the 1940s and 50s as a variation of the American Lindy Hop, adapted to the music of the time - rock ’n’ roll, rhythm & blues and boogie woogie. In this 4-week course, we will explore the typical footwork of Boogie Woogie(including variations) as well as the characteristic style that creates its unique dance feeling. While highlighting the differences from Lindy Hop, we will focus on characteristic Boogie Woogie moves and techniques that capture the spirit of the energetic music.
Expect lively music, lots of laughter, and a workout that will leave you feeling great — and a little sweaty.
