Product Description: A simple Slow Slow Quick Quick is the secret of an exciting and cool looking 6-count swing dance from the 30s and 40s: The Shag.

Shag is easy to learn. With its hops and kicks it is a lot of fun. If you like to have close contact to your partner and still don’t want to miss the energy of swing than Shag is the dance for you. Mostly danced in closed position, but also with open and separating elements, Shag can be danced from medium to fast music.

Shag was spread all over America some years before Lindy Hop became popular and different styles were popular in different regions. This tape series is about the Double Time Shag that was danced a lot among the college students, which why it is often referred to as Collegiate Shag. It should not be confused with Carolina Shag or St. Louis Shag. Even it was a separate dance Shag can be easily mixed with other Swing styles.

Revived in the Los Angeles Swing scene Shag made a strong comeback since the early 90s and spread on the side of his dancing cousin the Balboa around the World. Shag is taught again at many international dance camps and workshops and hasn’t lost its popularity.

5 stars Buy this Tape!
This is a great tape in a series of great videos. Basic to advanced instruction from some of the best Swing instructors and dancers around. Many dancers try to teach but do not have the ability to break the moves down and articulate what is going on the way that Marcus and Barbl do. This is a must have video for your swing collection.
Also, the jam at the end of the tape is a real treat!
