Play folk music with your feet! For movers of all experience and backgrounds.

Flatfooting is a solo form of improvised percussive dance originating in the Appalachian Mountains, with sonic and gestural connections to West African, Indigenous, and Western European dance. Using the toe, heel, and ball of the foot to strike and slide across the floor, flatfooting articulates the rhythms of old-time fiddle and banjo tunes.

Wear comfortable clothes and smooth-soled, supportive shoes with a low heel or no heel for this class. Beginner to advanced workshop.
