20s Charleston Dance - "Bei mir bist Du schön" New Orleans Jazz Band 

I’m impressed!

I love hearing stories like the one you just told us. The "Flappers" from the 1920's always fascinated me,

@@anaheimdennis I wish I could have asked her more questions- we always take our grandparents history for granted when we are young. I remember she told me her Victorian mother was pretty horrified when she saw her go out to the Speakeasies. She was a religious woman who still wore corsets and the flappers didn’t wear bras if they didn’t have to - just a slip under their dresses. My grandma cut all her hair off too - into a 20’s bob ( called a Louise Brooks Bob). It was a very big change for women since prohibition allowed women into bars without escorts. She talked a lot about Derringer being shot outside the Biograph Theater in Chicago since her friend witnessed it. A lot about gin, Clara Bow (the “It Girl”) and dancing. I have a picture of her as a flapper I’m trying to get colorized now. Thanks for your interest! Check out Glamour Daze on RU-vid. They colorize the 1920’s videos!

@@edl6398 I will! Thanks for the great reply!

Come on do not say that about your grandma.

Never a truer word said... I empathise.....

I know just what you mean. 😢

Indeed! Even thought the Roaring Twenties had its problems, it was still considered one of the most exciting and innovative decades in history. So many radical changes in culture, music, art, and invention! Where's our time machine?!

What's wrong with the trans debate, Biden vs Trump and campus protests?!

Thank you Tasha!

Right? I blew both my knees out just watching her. I completely LOVE the music of the 1920's and 30's and the dances were incredible as well! :-)

In heels too!!

Have you tried it on cocaine? Flapper style?

Bullshit. I'm a fat hairy man who can do this. Don't ask, it has to do with hanging out with gays and lots of alcohol. The Charleston while awkward is mostly about centering yourself and tight footwork with a loose hip. Women naturally already have an advantage over males because your centre of gravity is higher up than ours. That's why women have grace while men have I don't know, lump foot? When players of NRL, NHL, NBA, Australian Rules football and Rugby want to get better at their footwork they take Ballerina classes. Being "light in the foot" was once a term to refer to gays negatively is now something sought after by sporting elites.

Unmatched joy through dance!

they dont smile because they enjoy it most dancers are taught to smile because it gets dildos to enjoy the dance more

what is the location ?

Yes, wonderful location but I didn't like the direct sun flashing at the camera lens, would have had the subject facing the sun instead

@@samasrujan Potsdam University.

Styled after St. Peter's...hence my Comment...

I think it's at Park Sanssouci in Potsdam, Germany. judging by the columns and their shape, I'd say it's the Neues Palais colonnade

Thank you very much Gregory!

yes, i think those leg twirls are called "cow tails" in the charleston

the finest example??? i think you need to do some more research!!... not trying to take anything away from this lady.... i dropped a like and such, but the finest example... either you re ignorant or simping

Just needs a drop waisted flapper dress.

You are fun to watch, I wish women could embody this beauty of yours more.

@@peterwdowiak2637 oh yeah pour cold water on enthusiasm, can't have pure enjoyment spill over into hyperbole or fun police constable Peter will fine you and call you a "simp". Rather be a simp than lifeless dry arse

@@howeffingridiculous lolz

Thank you so much, I'm happy that the video gives you positive vibes!

@@JazzyFeet I think you are amazing and the fact that you can take a Dance form from 100 years ago, and make it look so alive and great today! Once again keep it up you are Amazing

I have been a 20's music fan since I was about 16 years old. That was 43 years ago. You brought the dancing alive for me as well.

that's just what I was thinking. She has all these old moves, but she's added this modern excitement and freshness to them. FUN.

The Roaring Twenties have returned!

@@jessicat3951 The dancing's great -- but the authentic attire would have made it so much better!

Exactly!!!😃

I think the shorts are darling!

Wow, thank you very much Dave for your kind words!

@@JazzyFeet What country are you from?)

I agree with your description 100%. I also want to add how much I love its unique quirkiness and ultimate feminine sexiness. I wish I were a bit younger but even at 52, once this damn pandemic is over I am going to find a swing dance class and aspire for this particular spirit! The most perfect one I have ever seen.

You stole my words and feelings!!! 🙃

Oh thank you so much! Happy to hear that! :)

Such an unusual location to contrast with this "modern" dance! How did you manage to film it with out other tourists wandering through your set?

This is a delightful comment. 💗

What a special memory! ❤️

That's what I just said.

I agree. Refreshing.

Thank you Larry!

@@JazzyFeet she wants to stay unknown - but i wanna know where to get them shoes!% I blame Ksenia for all this - she gets an A as inspiration ;)

Those cow tails were PERFECT!

@@jmm1000 You can get the shoes at a quality dance supplies shop. There are various styles of tap shoes etc. These look like the tap shoes we used to wear and also for certain choreography. You also colour them to match your outfit.

This is stunning. I once had a neighbour who’d been ballet trained in the 1920’s and 30’s, she said too much of (late 20th century) dancing didn’t move the dancers’ centre of gravity around enough, needed to chuck themselves around more. Watching this I understand what she meant. She used to love this whole style. Had three hip replacements in her later years though.

Ist nicht zu lang.

Your comments are a nice addition to this energetic presentation of this wonderful '30's classic!

Beautiful!!!!

Thank you!!

This exists thanks to Klezmer!

А она Машенька, да? :)

А разве Вы в танце это не прочувствовали ?

@@mike_kantaria Да все равно красиво.:)

@@tamarastepanova7079 Гугл в помощь.

@@DarthVader1147 Это не Ксения, не путайте людей. И на Ксению совсем не похожа. Читайте описание к видео и каналу, где она представляется Марией.
