We find it very important to practice the things we learned more often than just in class, and exchange your skills and questions about technique and moves with the other dancers.
Also, we want to dance more with our students and have time for personal feedback. There often is not enough time during the lessons, so this is the opportunity for that.

What is Shag?
Shag is a dance from the 1930s/40s that that is usually danced to rather fast music (180-240 bpm). It includes elements of the Lindy Hop and at the same time offers a whole lot of different variations which makes it interesting for experienced swing dancers as well as swing beginners.
