Tennessee State Fair - Cloggers

The Southern Country Cloggers spent an hour clogging at the Purity Stage in 2008. If you are not familiar with Clogging, it's a type of folk dancing popular in the south. The cloggers wear a special shoe that makes tapping the floor more prominent. There are several Clogging groups in the region and the performers in these groups usually are willing to take in all skill ranges, from novice to expert - anyone willing to learn.
