✨ Come learn this absolutely iconic solo jazz line dance ! ✨

The dance is called Tranky doo and the name, as Frankie Manning tells the story, was inspired from a Chicago dancer called Tranky Doo. She often used combinations of fall-of-the-logs.
The Tranky Doo is a vintage routine that was choreographed by Frankie Manning in the 1940s.
🔸 What I'll do is highly inspired by Spirit Moves version and numerous films featuring Al Minns & Leon James. Pepsi is the 3rd dancer that perform this routine with Al and Leon in Spirit Moves.
🔸 The first chorus is just as Frankie's first chorus and from there it takes of. Pepsi had a different career compared to Al and Leon and adds a bit of nice flavor to the mix.
