Saturday Video: Classic Jamaican Ska Dance Lesson

In the beginning, in Jamaica, there was ska…Okay, maybe not the beginning-beginning, but ska has been around for a long time. The bouncy and upbeat direct precursor to reggae first started hitting Jamaican airwaves in the 1950s. Some parts mento, some parts R&B (with a little calypso and jazz mixed in) ska absolutely demands that you dance! But how, you might ask, should you move to these infectious grooves? This classic video offers a step-by-step ska dance lesson, of sorts, for your *ahem* consideration…

Okay, as instructional how-to’s go, this ska dance lesson video may not do it for you. I get it. As an alternative, though, there’s the Dance Jamaica Academy. Not only are their instructors adept at old school ska, but they also specialize in more modern dancehall movements. Check them out on Instagram.
