Originating in the clubs of New York & Chicago in the late 70s, House originally takes its inspiration from a number of disciplines including, Tap, African dance, Latin & Martial Arts.
Through this course we make the connection between the style of House & its more modern relative - shuffle dance.
House & shuffle dance are social dance styles; so whether you are wanting to sharpen up your club moves, develop footwork and rhythm, or just sweat and have fun whilst learning something new, this course is for you.
House and Shuffle dance are great tools to develop balance, co-ordination, lower body strength, rhythm and musicality. Each week, through a combination of choreography, improvisation and fun exercises we will develop our vocabulary and confidence in House & Shuffle Dance.
