Clogging is a countrified version of tap dance that is now performed to all types of music by all ages. This high-energy dance combines Irish, English, Scottish, and American folk dance with modern tap, jazz and ballet disciplines. The result is modern clog dance and an onslaught of sound and excitement. With the popularity of Riverdance and the Irish step dance movement, President Clinton has referred to clog dance as “America’s Riverdance”.
