The Madison is an easy to learn novelty dance that was popular in the late 1950s to mid 1960s. The Madison was created and first danced in Columbus, Ohio in 1957. The local popularity of the dance and the record that went along with the dance came to the attention of the producers of The Buddy Deane Show in 1960. Picked up by dance shows across the country, it became widely popular. 

The Madison is a line dance that features a regular back-and-forth pattern interspersed with called steps that were inspired by popular celebrities and events of the 1950s. The Madison is featured in the movie Hairspray, and it continues to be performed in the Broadway musical Hairspray. Ray Bryant recorded "Madison Time" for Columbia Records in 1959

You will not only receive a copy of the choreography...you will also receive a cd of "The Madison Time" song. What more could you need for an awesome at home practice session?
