Jam Cellar's Shim-Sham 6/5/07

This is the class review for The Jam Cellar's Shim-Sham, taught as a bonus lesson for students in the Building Your Basics series of 2007, which ended 6/5/07. Your instructors are Kate Hedin and Jeff Booth. The Shim Sham is a line dance with many different variations in choreography. This version may be different from the one you may have already learned. This version is credited to Leonard Reed and Willy Bryant of the Apollo Theater.

Though this video was shot with music in the background from another room, the tunes normally accompanying this dance include Chick Webb or Benny Goodman's version of "Stopming At The Savoy," Erskine Hawkins' "Tuxedo Junction," Jimmie Lunceford's "'Tain't What You Do (It's the Way That You Do It)", and The Bill Eliot Orchestra's "Shim Sham Song."

The Jam Cellar is a world-reknowned weekly swing dance party held in a posh, turn of the century mansion in Northwest Washington, DC on Tuesday nights. The Jam Cellar offers class series in Lindy Hop and other swing dances for all levels of dancers taught by some of the best instructors in the world. The Jam Cellar also hosts periodic special events. For more information about The Jam Cellar visit http://www.thejamcellar.com/.
