For those who had the chance to live through the late 1950s, the memory of “The Stroll” might evoke a smile. But if this is your introduction to it, prepare to be enchanted.

This delightful dance made its debut on the famed show American Bandstand and rapidly took the 50s by storm. Its allure lay in its simplicity and universal appeal. It beckoned everyone, regardless of their dancing prowess, to participate.
