INTERNATIONAL CALL
A call for all swing dance communities worldwide to host a swing dance on Thursday, May 26th, offering a free Shim Sham class in honor of the Father of Lindy Hop, Frankie Manning, who was born on May 26, 1914. If you are available that Thursday to dance and participate in any Shim Sham gathering, RSVP "yes" on our event page!
Several communities are already participating, so let's join in! Take this opportunity to help us grow the dance community together on this special occasion. If your community can afford to make the event FREE admission, that will draw in more people, obviously. We will leave that up to you. Again, this is a collective effort of the worldwide swing community to grow the dance scene globally, teach new dancers the Shim Sham, and honor Frankie!
