This video makes me want to learn how to shag!

[anis1315]

I had to do the shag at school and it was fun. I was pretty good, but not as good as these dancers!

[Feverwitch]

I love this dance style but do you folks realise what the word "shag" means in the UK? Have a big fat guess then read these video titles with that in mind! Yes I know I'm like a 10yo but please come to London and tell the first man you meet what a great shagger you are!!!!

[SixFigureMom]

@Feverwitch LOL

[Rindiangrits]

@Feverwitch I just found out now when I google it. Darn it! Is it true that in UK, the word to root means doing something sexually?

[leedsmanc]

@Rindiangrits no that's Australia

[Rindiangrits]

@leedsmanc Well somebody's been lying!

[Husong48]

Do they have any bones in their legs? lol noodle leg dancing!

[sckirbyc1]

In case anyone was wondering the song is Al Green - Give it everything, and can be found right here on youtube.

[KingstonMyrtleBeach]

The Shag is the official dance of South Carolina. At Kingston Plantation we have the best moves!

[applelogic1025]

What song is this?

[123timmybb]

this is the first time i've ever seen people dance this way....so amazing!...how do they do that!

[Sentic16]

Woah, i heard about this dance through a song i dance modern jive to, the moves are almost the same but more fancy footwork, the song is called 'shagging the night away'

i gotta admit this was a pleasure to watch. :)

[outdoorsman0331]

hey the song is  give it everything by al green

[scbeachguy57]

killer steps--- smooth and a joy to watch

[budman2727]

i think i am the only girl on the carolina coast who doesnt know how to shag,but after watching this i want to learn, they are great!

[christiecanaday86]

[esmereldatitswallop]

[ohbabyhush]

I've always wanted to learn how to shag...I LOVE IT...IT LOOKS LIKE GREAT FUN AND JAMMIN' EXERCISE.

[carann5]

Great dancing and entertaining to watch. Maybe I can learn some steps if I watch enough. Gosh I wish I could watch in slow motion. Thanks to Frank (outdoorsman0331)for sending this to me and thanks to agask2!

[j01eck]

c walk crippin haha

[gomochachi]

I've seen this video at least 10 times. I was raised in SC, and I was one of the rare few who really didn't care that much for shag dancing. However, this video shows how it's supposed to be done. I never get sick of this clip. Excelente!

[milibean]

Wow these guys are truly amazing, what perfect footwork and the top halves of their bodies look like they're barely moving LOL! Fabulous!

[lmcfad17]

OMG..im from SC and i've always wanted to learn how to shag...I LOVE IT!

[songsilove2425]

love it, who sings the song

[therumpypumpy]

jen and joey sogliuzzo. they live in wilson nc and do teach privates, or at least they did a couple of years ago. a nicer couple you won't find.

[jc4duke]

this a lot less about you dancing with the partner, and you're feet dancing with their feet. the feet are making love together. (i hope no one that reads this has a foot fetish)

[ClaysSTO]

this is all you used to see at the Carolina Beaches! love it!

[lovedog49507]

wow i love this

[redsaxy]

because its not a wc. its a shag. hence the title. close though.

[rtistlady]

Best of the shaggers.. Some real fancy and cool footwork!!

[54spiritedwill54]

From an avid WCSwing dancer, this is sweet!

[needsumluv]

I like to do the shag with him

[RTCSNATLoVE]

question: i know that most people aren't as good as this couple, but is shag dancing really really difficult to learn? because i really want to know how to do it, never as good as these people of course, but at a normal level. would i be possible for me to learn?

[teacher694]

They sure are fun to watch. And the girl is pretty cute. I love watching the shag dance ever since I saw the movie 'Shag'.

[faylow105]

Great dancing guys. Got to love it...smooth as butter!  Wonderful to watch!

[ChelcAnne02]

Where is this at it looks like its in Rucker Johns but idk. By the way their A W E S O M E!!

[agask2]

ducks at north myrtle beach,sc

[woodeehaa]

Wow! they are just gliding! amazing!

[cottagekeepsakes]

So much fun to watch .. bringing back the memories of home, Carolina/Kure Beach ..These two dancers are especially awesome .. thank you, so much, for posting the video

[rastagirl007]

NICE! what fun!

[TourCharlestonSC]

wow!

[ShagShoe]

That is Joey & Jennifer Sogluizzo. Great shaggers and "Keepers of the Dance". As I recall, they placed First Place in the Pro Division at that competition.

[tarheelted]

I have been living in California for the past 40+ years, but you never get the sand out of your shoes, or the Shag out of your heart. Great memories.

[Direness]

I have to say, I enjoy Carolina Shag visually so much better than WC. It looks like their actually WORKING the floor, not posing and doing hustle turns inbetween swing outs while trying to force sexuality into a dance that doesn't need it. And the music in these videos is just so much better than WC or MJ musical tastes. Go CS!

[fenix712]

I know. I was there for Fall SOS. I just didn't recognize the place.

Thanks.

[fenix712]

Where was this contest held?

[drdoowop]

God I miss the Pad, Sonny's , the old  Pawleys Pavilion and MY YOUTH

[cookieva]

The song is by Al Green

[AthenaXOXO]

Couple # 6, you are fantastic! Thanks for posting the video here. Hope you put future dance videos here too.

[gilmore48]

Love the footwork. Much different than the St.Louis Shag I used to do.

[kttycat434]

joey, skeeva and ducks..i miss all of you!!

[MonsieurRedMonkey]

Thanks! That's the first time I've ever seen Carolina Shag. It's not collegiate is it! ;)

[agask2]

[silkath]

Incredible. I want to dance this well!
