The Austin Swing Syndicate will be teaching a Shim Sham Class for the month of August. The Shim Sham is traditional jazz line dance (no partner necessary, think of it like an old school, 1920’s version of Cupid Shuffle or Teach Me How to Dougie). We do the Shim Sham every Thursday around 10:30pm and this is a great way to learn the steps so you can participate with everyone. The best part, is the class is FREE with admission into the dance.

We have fabulous instructors teaching two week series on the Shim Sham. We’ll have two separate series of classes so if you miss one just wait until the next series starts. Here’s the information:
