ROCKnROLL Rock and Roll developed from Rhythm and Blues. Little Richard, one of the greats in the 1950's rock music, often said that "Rhythm and Blues had a baby and somebody named it Rock and Roll." During the 1950's, Swing dancing (Lindy and Jitterbug) was unsuccessfully to be renamed 'Rock and Roll'. This renaming of the dance shows that even the early dancers were aware that the dance could hold its own to other styles of music. Rock and Roll Dancing can be done to other styles of music, not just "Big Band". In the USA Rock and roll Dancing is known as Swing. There are many interpretations of this dance and different footwork can be adapted. We teach the pressure step, swing style Rock and Roll. Smooth, easy to learn and lots of fun! Influenced by the music of Bill Haley and the Comets Elvis Presley Jerry Lee Lewis and many more this dance is contagious. Enrol now and bring a friend, partner, or family member.
