Clogging is a dance that began in the Appalachian Mountains in the mid 1700’s when immigrants from Ireland, Scotland, England, Germany and such countries settled in the Appalachian Mountains in the US.

The folk-dance steps from each country were melded together with those of the US to form Clogging steps, thus Clogging was developed.

Clogging is a dance form that combined percussive footwork with Appalachian figure dancing and has evolved constantly every since. We continue to celebrate our “hoedown” roots, while also enjoying new ways for people to move with and without partners, and connect rhythms with music, from hip hop to country and everything in between.
