"Foot Music" - Solo Flat-Footing for Sessions.
We present a unique workshop, designed to provide participants with the basics of traditional Appalachian flat-footing to enable them to accompany music in sessions, on stage, social events or simply in the comfort of their own homes.
If you can walk, we can teach you to flat-foot in one hour!
Perfect for dancers and non-dancers alike.
Promotes co-ordination and rhythm in young and old
Inspires participants to tap out simple and complex steps in time with any 4/4 music from Old Time, to Folk, Pop and even Rock n' Roll!
We teach the authentic mountain-style of flat-footing but also include some "lazy" steps for the less mobile!
No previous experience is necessary, although we can also teach intermediate and even advanced students.
This Workshop is ideal for Music Festivals, Seminars, Corporare events, Schools and Colleges and anywhere where people of any age want to broaden their rhythmic skills and fitness.
