Intro:

Anna Karina, one of the most beautiful actresses ever.

She sings “Ma ligne de chance” in the below video. It’s a re-edit. Pretty good job done. But the original song is from the film “Pierrot le fou”.

OK. So let’s talk about dancing. One of my favorite film is “band of outsiders”.(Directed by Jean-Luc Goddard)
Anna Karina stars with Danielle Girard and Sami Frey.

Such an interesting film to watch even now. It was made in 1964, but it feels so fresh. Most impressive is beautiful and innocent heroine, Odile (Anna Karina). There is this dance scene – I just learned that the dance is “Madison”. So here is the film clip, followed by instruction for the dance.

A clip from a film Bande a Part (French, 1964)(Band of Outsiders) with the ever charming Anna Karina dancing with Danielle Girard and Sami Frey.

Sequences are side steps – jump – shuffle – swing (roughly). Lesson 3 includes styling tips.
