20s & 30s Dancing
We'll give this a try in class and then in the gym during 20s & 30s Day.
To help I've tried to round up some videos.
First, here's the song for arguably the most famous dance of the time, the Charleston.
And here's some vintage footage, recreation and dance instruction:
Lindy Hopping from the 30s & 40s (footage from the 1940s):
And finally a really interested segment on the "Big Apple" Dance of the 30s.
