Electric Footwork: Shuffling with Oscar

Get ready to glide, slide, and stomp your way into the weekend! Shuffling with Oscar brings the high-energy vibes of the electronic music scene right into the studio. Whether you want to dominate the dance floor at the next music festival or just want a cardio workout that doesn't feel like a chore, this class is the ultimate footwork challenge.

In this 45-minute session, Oscar breaks down the lightning-fast footwork that defines the style. Rooted in the "Melbourne Shuffle" and evolved through the "Cutting Shapes" era, this class focuses on the illusion of gliding across the floor while maintaining a solid groove. Oscar’s teaching style creates a bridge between technical precision and freestyle flow, ensuring you look effortless even while you're working up a serious sweat.

What you can expect in class:

• The Pillars: Master the two fundamental moves that start it all: the "Running Man" and the "T-Step."

• Cutting Shapes: Learn the intricate criss-cross patterns, Charlestons, and heel-toe twists that add flair to your flow.

• Speed & Stamina: Shuffling is an intense cardio workout. We build up speed gradually, helping you increase your endurance without sacrificing form.

• Transitions: Oscar teaches you how to link moves together smoothly, including spins and glides, so you aren't just doing isolated steps.

This class is high-impact and set to upbeat House and EDM tracks. Smooth-soled sneakers are highly recommended to help you pivot and slide with ease.
