River Harmon and Karlee Martin - Aging Out Shag Dance

Ойын-сауық

It was summer. The beach had cleared after a thunderstorm, and a perfect moment was about to unfold on the sand in front of the Ocean Dive Pavillion in North Myrtle Beach, South Carolina.
With the air clear, the sun beaming hot, and the cool wind blowing across the foaming ocean waves, Karlee Martin danced the Shag with Pro Shag Dancer River Harmon for her "aging out" dance as a part of the 2021 Junior SOS, the world's largest junior dance event.
The Shag is South Carolina's state dance, and it is said that those who experience the Shag once can make memories that last a lifetime.

    We danced The Shag in New Jersey too .... so I don't think it can be claimed as a S.C. product. It was on American Bandstand and it went nationwide.

    Thank you for your comment, however this is the Carolina Shag. Carolina Shag is the state dance of South Carolina. The state bill was introduced in 1984 by representative "Bubber" Snow, and signed by governor Dick Riley. The General Assembly by Act No. 329, 1984, designated the Shag as the official dance of the State.

    This is lovely dance until the videographer breaks the Fred Astaire rule. Dancing is about the ENTIRE body, not feet or hips. Closeups are disruptive of the flow of the body. I got halfway through the video but stopped to write this message and then close the connection.

    @@JoeHarkinsHimself Well I was speaking of Shag specifically, in the words of the people I learned from. I would say it's not "all" about the feet in Shag, but mostly. I was lucky to have Sam West as my teacher. He is the winningest Shag champion of all time and taught me almost everything I know about dancing. Check him out on KZread! I know you will enjoy his dancing.
