Shag Fundamentals & Shag Adventurers Courses - 3 Week Series for Beginners & Improvers

Ready to take your first steps into the world of Collegiate Shag?

Collegiate Shag is a partnered swing dance, full of fast footwork and energetic, playful rhythms. Originating in the African American communities of the Carolinas in the 1920s, Collegiate spread across the US in the 1930s. It is now danced in swing dance communities across the globe and we want you to find your fast feet this summer!

We’re excited to invite Sophie and Catrin, two local dancers in our community and shag sisters to share their love of Collegiate with you all, whether you’re new to Shag or looking for more tricks for your pocket!

We are offering two courses in Collegiate Shag, taught over 3 weeks on Tuesdays in Cardiff, starting Tues 19 Aug

Shag Fundamentals - perfect for those starting their journey with Collegiate Shag or those looking to brush up on their basics and build dancefloor confidence

Shag Adventurers - aimed at those already comfortable with shag rhythms and basic partnering skills aka. you are comfortable social dancing an entire song.
