How to Charleston

Charleston is one of the biggest dance crazes to ever hit America.  Originally busting out on the scene in the 1920’s, it is still influential to this day.  It eventually developed into the Breakaway which led to the creation of Lindy Hop.  It’s one of the major influences in many other dances such as Break Dancing and Hip Hop.  Charleston has recently had a big resurgence after the release of the Great Gatsby film starring Leonardo DiCaprio.
