Your tap teacher probably taught you the original shim sham (originally called the Goofus) created by tap dancer Leonard Reed in 1927. There were many alt choreography developed since the original. I can think of three major variations: Dean Collins shim sham, Al Minns and Leon James shim sham, and the great Franky Manning shim sham. The lady in the video gracefully demonstrates for us the Franky Manning version.
