LEAP TO YOUR FEETAppalachian
Dancers and Musicians perform the traditional dance and music
of the Southern Appalachian Mountains of America - also known as
Appalachian Clogging.
The
dances incorporate the various traditions of several European and
African Countries. The dancers wear “tap” shoes to add a
percussive sound to the music.
Appalachian
Dancing evolved from the “Clog” dancing common in England And
Ireland and taken to the Appalachian mountains of America by the
early settlers.
