20's Charleston Dance - "Black Bottom"

 Hi, I’m Maria and through this channel I want to share my passion for dancing to jazz music with you.

As a teenager I danced (modern) Jazz Dance for a while and tried some Ballet. Few years ago, when I discovered Afro-American vernacular dances, like Charleston and Lindy Hop I was captivated by the creativity, craziness, and imperfection these dances allow. When I dance to jazz music, I feel pure joy and freedom. I would like to transmit this feeling to you and hope you enjoy it.
