Clogging, or clog dancing, is a lively, foot-stomping dance which originated in the
Southern Appalachian Mountains. The settlers to those mountains brought their own
steps and rhythms, which melded into what we now call clogging. Modern cloggers dance
to all types of music. Clogging clubs meet regularly to learn new steps and dances.
Teams may also perform precision routines or participate in clogging competitions.
The Northern California Cloggers Association was formed in March, 1982, to promote
clogging and communication among all cloggers in Northern California and neighboring
states. Membership is made up of teachers as well as dancers who love and support
clogging. NCCA sponsors workshops and dances, seminars for instructors and clogging
leaders, and also puts on an annual 3-day convention in the spring of each year.
The Association's award-winning newsletter, the Clog-A-Gram, is published
quarterly and includes the minutes of each quarterly membership meeting, cue sheets
for clogging dances, articles on clogging, club news, information on clogging in
other areas, useful hints, information on where to clog and upcoming events.
Clogging classes can be found in most areas. Check the list of Clogging
Clubs and Instructors.
