Clogging in 20 Seconds!
There's lots of ways to teach and learn to clog. Here's a method that will get you moving in the proper motion in about 20 seconds if you push it, or by the end of a tune if you are patient. With our modern attention span, most people are willing to pay attention for 20 seconds, which I guess is also the length of the average tv commercial. I can teach anyone with 2 legs to clog in 20 seconds. Well, nearly anyone.
Of course it's a lot easier in person, and if you want to teach yourself from this text you will have to use your imagination to fill in the gaps between the words.
Clogging and flatfooting are learned by endless repetition until your body- legs and hips- has learned a new motion. The reason the 20 Second Clogging Lesson works is because you learn the motion of clogging before you learn the mechanics of clogging steps. It's a lot harder to learn the motion by learning the mechanics, and you can't really clog anyway until you have the downbeat motion working.
