We have had many requests to once again teach the Shim Sham and we decided that this would be a great opportunity to do just that. Oh, and to make it even more fun, if time permits, we plan to also introduce the St. Louis Shim Sham version as well. Sophia has been a driving force to make this happen and will be leading the class. Thank you, Sophia!
The class will start at 6:00 PM and end at 8:00 PM.
We will be charging $10 or what you can afford for this lesson. If you already know the basic Shim Sham feel free to join us for the first hour. As always donations are always appreciated but once again the primary mission of NoCo Swing Dance is to share the joy and benefits of swing dancing.
The Masonic Temple Event Center Shoe Policy - Only clean, non-marking shoes are permitted. Please thoroughly clean the soles of the shoes that you will be using for dancing, and carry them in. Then change in the lobby so that no grit and dirt is tracked in from the outside.
For those who might not know what the Shim Sham is here are two awesome videos that you can take a look at:

This website describes the history of the Shim Sham: https://lindyland.com/dance-styles/line-dances/shim-sham-cb/.
We take Venmo (@NoCo-SwingDance) or cash or check on or before the first night. Please arrive early so we can get you checked in. Also, if you know you will be attending, please email us so we can get a head count at [email protected]. We would like to know if you would like to lead or follow and which class you would like to attend.
No dance experience and/or partner is ever required for any of our events!
Come learn with us!
