JUST CLAP!

At the beginning of everything, there was a tiny, almost imperceptible movement… Dmm taka ta – td – td – ta – tad Dmm cak ca – td – td – taktrr | D ta – d ta – trrrdkatdka – japajapadmm… and then sound joined in!

 

After years of experience organising dance and rhythm projects in the Czech Republic and abroad, Cloggers present a full-length show in the style of Lord of the Dance or Stomp!. You can look forward to an evening full of dance, rhythms, music, emotion, and humour. As the title suggests, you certainly won’t remain sitting still.

 

Cloggers is a percussive dance group bringing together top cloggers / tap dancers in the Czech Republic. They draw on American tap dance and combine it with other dance and rhythmic styles. In the show, they create the music themselves using various instruments, props, their own bodies, and often even with the help of the audience.

 

The group was founded in 2022. Its members have many years of experience from their home dance clubs and competitions, where they regularly achieve top placements. Thanks to their outstanding dance level and the combination of tap dance with other artistic disciplines, Cloggers ranks among unique projects not only in the Czech Republic, but throughout Europe.
