| Flatfooting is a percussive dance style derived from the clogging of Scotch-Irish immigrants in and around the Appalachian mountains, blended with influences from the Africans and Cherokee Indians in that region. It is usually done to "old-time" mountain music. While definitions vary, flatfooting is often distinguished from performance or competition clogging in that it is more free-form, individualized, and less choreographed. |

Diane has been an avid free-style flatfooter in her kitchen and on the dance floor for nearly 10 years. In workshops, lesson series, and impromptu jams, she loves sharing this high-energy dance form that enables the dancer to "play" with the band. Highly-skilled teaching enables all participants to enjoy immediate success as well as take home skills to work on over time. Single workshop, lesson series over several weeks, or week-long intensive workshop. Kids or adults. Beginning or intermediate levels.
