Clogging is a percussive dance easily described as “common folk tap dance.” The Mon Valley Cloggers are the area’s most prominent cloggers, having performed over 780 shows in southwestern Pennsylvania since organization in 1992.
Clogging is good exercise and a social affair, and there are dances for all seasons. Many dance costumes are provided.
All beginners will get 4 weeks free. The free lessons allow the beginners to try clog dancing before committing and buying shoes, which cost about $90 per pair. Lessons will be either Mondays from 6:30 to 8 p.m. or Tuesdays from 5:30 to 6:30 p.m. depending which date is most preferred by new students.
Lessons are in Forward Township, a short distance off PA-51. Beginners must eventually be available for regular practice, which is each Tuesday from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. Those who continue pay $20 for each ten-week session of lessons or regular practice.
No partner is required; men or women are welcome, ages 10 and up. Bring a friend, and if you come with a friend and you both continue to the second session, it will be $10 each!
