      Zydeco

zydeco dancing sketch


Like a good drug, over and over and over. Diggy diggy lie, diggy diggy low. Quick to learn, slow to master, Cajun music. Great music for driving in a car, drinking to, bouncing off each other. Definite formula for rythmic success. Whole institution with dance camps, trips to Louisiana, barbeques. Musicians take the psuedo illiterate pose like blues musicians. Accordian in band is a must. Occasional Waltz ala Cajun style thrown in.

Cajun Dancing Illustration


No dipping, weaving or bouncing; the line of dance moves as smooth as skaters on fresh ice in this two step. In the center there are the fancier moves; little windows, sweethearts, Juliette's and more. Every other dance is a waltz. And it is an 8 count dance so there is a lot of opportunity to swing, unless you want to boogie to the Whiskey River Jitterbug.
