Subject: RE: Folklore: English Clog Dancing/ Clogging
Quite a few friends have allowed it to be known that they were taking clogging lessons, (within the past 5-10 years) and I know at least one local musician who plays for a clogging group nearby now. Even in hicksville central Kansas, it happens.

As I don't recall ever seeing such groups "advertised," I'd guess that they're pretty much known only to the participants and by word of mouth to a few friends. It's quite likely the same situation exists in your area; but I have no useful suggestions about how you would find any such groups (except perhaps a note on the bulletin board at the nearest university rec center(?)).

I have no idea what "style" the current group that I've heard of is doing, but perhaps I can convince my friend to drop in and offer some comments - if he still reads his email.
