Sometimes you were simply born in the wrong period. These teenagers do The Shag as if they were alive during the dance’s peak.
Given enough time, the old will ultimately become new again. Alternatively, the elderly can become “hip” again. Trends and fashions that we thought were lost forever make their way back into mainstream culture.
Karsyn and Ethan are going to impress us with techniques from a historical period that neither of them is generally aware of.
The Shag dance peaked in popularity in the 1940s. These two small dancers appear to believe that the dance deserves another go in our day.
Karsyn and Ethan turn from two little youngsters into maniacal movement machines. I mean, look at them leave. Do you think you can top that?
They show us two things. First, there is nothing “old” about prior dancing forms. And, two, we must not lose hope in today’s youth just because they are fixated on the popular dances they watch on Tik Tok.
