Man, I can't seem to do the tacky ann and the half break properly. But I'm gonna keep practising til I get it. I aim to get all the steps down before the end of July 2021 (it's one of my mid year goals).

Jdnxbakznzn I saw a vintage edit of the shim sham that makes it looks like it's from like the 20's and so confused

[@CinziaDearca1989]

Does someone know the name of this song/music?

[@lindyhoparchive9265]

I believe the music was specifically written for this video series. I’ve never heard it anywhere else.
