The Tranky Doo is one of the most well known solo jazz choreographies in the Lindy Hop world, and, like the Shim Sham, is often done at social dances. In this class, you’ll expand your solo jazz vocabulary, work on the techniques of trickier moves like fall-off-the-log and the Shorty George, and put it all together into this famous routine. This is a great class for those new to solo jazz, and will also offer material for those who already know the Tranky Doo but are looking to improve their style and quality of movement.
