Chicago Style Steppin' Instructional Video

 Chicago Steppin'

In the 60s, when Chicago took the Jitterbug to a different level, it evolved into "Boppin"; Boppin' then evolved into Steppin' and is still evolving today. Steppin' is a lot smoother than Boppin' and is composed of 10% technique and 90% style. It's the style element that makes this such an addictive dance.

"Steppin' is a way of life. Steppin' makes people from all over the country come to Chicago just to see this phenomena first hand. Although Steppin' is nationally known, it is native to Chicago. Steppin' is not just a dance, it's the music, the moves, the clothes, the mood. Steppin' is an art form that stirs the soul ... it's a rhythm as unique as the dance itself with smooth steps and even smoother turns." - Emilie McKendall (famous Chicago Disc Jockey).

Steppin' is here to stay! So if you’re ready, here's your opportunity to learn the technique and add your unique style to this dance that is shared by old and young alike.  Bonus footage, including exclusive interviews with George Daniels, Sam Chatman, Yvonne Paramore, Glen Richards and others.

Marzette is a favorite on the steppin' scene, not only because of his smooth and soulful vocal talent, but also because of his ability to move the crowd with his fancy footwork. He was the first champion of the World's Largest Steppers Contest.

The hit single "Hey DJ" is one of the most sought after steppers song this year. The sound track features Bobby Hutton, Brian Henly, Ray Silkman and the song Windy City from the Official Steppers Music CD.

3 Slides Video

DVD Only - $24.99
Back in 2002, The Majestic Slide was the first slide dance to emerge since Charlie Green's "Bus Stop". Then came Casper “Mr. C” The Slide Man’s “Cha Cha Slide” that took slide dances to new heights. Since then, hundreds of slides have emerged.

On this DVD are three of the slides that will stay for years to come. This DVD will give two instructions and one demonstration of each dance, because repetition is the best way to learn the slide dance.
