World Lindy Hop Day (May 26) marks the birthday of Frankie Manning, the ambassador of Lindy Hop! Come celebrate it with us by learning the Shim Sham!

The Shim Sham is one of the most iconic solo jazz routines in the swing dance world. Originally created as a tap routine in the late 1920s, it later became a favourite in the Lindy Hop community thanks to Frankie Manning adapting and sharing the routine in the '80s! This routine is now commonly done at most swing dance socials & events world wide!

Taylor Marcus will be breaking down and teaching you the routine from the ground up. All levels are welcome in this class as this is a beginner friendly routine! No prior swing or solo jazz experience is needed.
