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.

I thought I had seen most if not all the Shag moves, until now! This last tape in the Shag series has moves galore, many unique to this video. Marcus and Bärbl make it look easy and present the material in a fun and interesting manner. This tape is perfect for the Shag dancer who is looking for new and exciting Shag Combinations.
