Junior Shag

The Hilton Head Island Carolina Shag Club invites all young people who like music, dance and fun to learn the Carolina State Dance, the Shag. Although there is not an active Junior Shag Club in the area at this time, our Club is eager to provide help to all “juniors” interested in Shag dancing. We will be posting announcements of Junior Shag workshops and dance opportunities throughout the region when they are available.

For those who want to check out Shag dancing right here in Hilton Head, you can attend one of our dances held most every Friday night at Christ Lutheran Church’s Heinrichs Hall. Those young dancers under eighteen do need to be accompanied by an adult, but there is no age limit for Shag dancing! We are always glad to welcome those who want to come for a visit or to even join the Club … dance lessons are free to all members. We feel strongly that in the process of learning to dance, young people can learn much more. They gain confidence, respect for others, manners and social graces, positive communication skills and all while making friends and having fun.

Our Club dance instructors can also help with organizing a Junior Shag Club. We can visit organizations in the community wherever young people may gather and offer a series of dance lessons at their establishment … we have been proclaimed “Junior Shag Friendly.” You can learn more about Club membership, Friday night dances and dance lesson right here on our website.
