Workshop Quickstep Saturday June 20th at 3pm - 2hours Infinity Dance Sport Center 4428 Convoy St Ste 288, San Diego, CA... As Ragtime music evolved into Swing through the 1920's, new dances such as the Charleston, the Shimmy, and the Black Bottom became popular. The Charleston was said to have originated in the Cape Verde Islands. It evolved into a vigourous round dance done by African dock workers in the Port of Charleston. It was danced with wild swinging arms and side kicks to music at 200 to 240 beats per minute. The Black Bottom presumably originated in the suburb of Detroit of that name. It was done to music at 140 to 160 beats per minute, and involved swaying the torso, bending the knees and short kicks. The Shimmy was probably derived from a Nigerian dance, the "Shika", taken to America by the black slaves. Nowadays, the word means to shake the shoulders or hips rapidly, rotating them alternately left and right forward and back about a vertical axis. These dances became absorbed into a faster version of Foxtrot becoming known as the Quickstep. Currently it is danced at a tempo of approximately 200 beats per minute. It retains the walks, runs, chasses and turns, of the original Foxtrot, with some other fast figures such as locks, hops, and skips added.
