This is the class review for the first of six classes in The Jam Cellar's Old School Jams, taught 6/26/07. Your instructors are Bobby White and Kate Hedin.
The moves are based on the 1929 film short "After Seben." Footage is of Shorty George Snowden and his partner, sometimes credited as Pauline Morse, at other times identified as Big Bea. The music is by Chick Webb and his orchestra.
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/.
