This may not be your first time watching someone perform a Boogie Woogie dance routine, but chances are you’ve never seen anything like what the talented teens in the video below can do.
The footage was recorded as part of the World Championship celebrating this unique type of dancing, and you won’t believe the moves these boys and girls have. It’s taken them taken years of dedication and countless hours of hard work to reach this level, but I think you’ll agree that it was definitely worth it.
For those of you who don’t already know this, the Boogie Woogie is actually a musical genre that became popular during the late 1920s. However, the style is known for having developed in African American communities in the 1870s.
Still, the term boogie-woogie is most commonly used to describe a very particular style of dancing that involves high-energy moves and dancers swimming their bodies all over the dancer floor. That’s enough theory, though.
The best way to get a sense of what this dance is all about is to see it in action. Hit play if you’re ready to take a peek at an award-winning Boogie Woogie routine performed by some of the best young dancers in the world!
