1920's Partnered Charleston: Dan Guest & Jessica Lennartsson

Charleston is a dance that can be danced both with and without a partner. Here is a wonderful video clip with Dan Guest & Jessica Lennartsson who dances charleston in this fun dance routine. A lot of humor and moves that match the music.



The music is Black Bottom by Spike Jones. Crazy tune. Crazy like only Spike Jones can be.

I found out about this clip thanks to Hans who also told me about the Hellzapoppin routine done to Jumpin At The Woodside before.

What do you think of the 1920's charleston routine by Dan Guest & Jessica Lennartsson? Tell me.

Why do swing dancers view the music and dance of the 1920's as satire? Why no REAL music from the 20's, there's so much fantastic stuff???
There was dance before swing. Ugh!
