About the event

Shim Sham Workshop
Saturday, August 2nd, from 11:00 AM to 1:30 PM

Registration Link: https://www.vagaro.com/mdcyy6g/classes

Learn the iconic jazz line dance, the shim sham! The shim sham originated as a tap dance routine in the 1920s and was adapted for swing dancers by Lindy Hop icon Frankie Manning in the 1980s. This solo jazz version remains a staple at any Lindy Hop social dance. No experience necessary; some solo jazz or Lindy Hop experience helpful but not required! In September, a performance opportunity will be offered to those interested in performing the shim sham! More information about the performance to come!
