hello! my teacher recommended me this so i can learn the shim sham, i really like tap dance thats why i got into tap. the tutorial really helped. thanks for helping a 10 year old out. :)
Your tutorials help me so much! I started a class 4 weeks ago and watching your videos gives me little tricks to be able to transition so much easier! Thank you, Shelby!!
Thanks to God we got Shelby as a teacher...you are great and such a kind person so I'm learning easily every step...thanks so much Shelby. Andy Duran -Musician. Caracas Venezuela
I love your videos! I just started back at tap dancing again as an adult! My dance teacher taught me the Tack Annie, so I started looking up the shim sham and found your awesome videos! Thanks for the tips! I think your videos will really help me on my journey. What tap dancing board do you use?
Thank you! I have 4 different types... O'Mara, Fasfoot, Amp, and Dot2Tap... check out some of my reviews on here for details (and look at my tiktok to see other ones).
It definitely helps when you are trying to dance faster to be able to be on your toes when needed, but realize you don't have to be particularly high on your toes... just enough for them not to be touching the floor, and you should let your knees bend.
Shelby Kaufman Awesome! I'm obsessed with learning this dance :). I teach kids dance (including tap) at my local Y, and I've learned a lot of helpful tips from you. Thank you!

Thanks so much Andy!
Thank you so much for this video, I kind of forgot how to do this dance and I had a test on how to do it in my dance class.
So glad it helped!
Love love love, thanks for sharing!!
Love your videos!!! Great teaching, easy to learn from and you include so many fun/interesting moves.
+aquamarine0023 Thank you so much!
Great video, can you recommend a piece of music to practice this too?
Really any music that swings... a lot of people Shim Sham to 'Lester Leaps In'. There are multiple versions so find one that is the speed you want.

Thank you very much for your tutorials!
Thank you for watching!
thank you so much very helpful. As a beginnner, it's hard for me to stay on my toes throughout--is that essential for weight shifts, etc?

can you add closed captioned?
Will you be doing the other steps in the Shim Sham
Yes, actually one video I filmed but still need to edit is the second step of the Shim Sham!
