Authentic Jazz Dances
 
The most popular one of these is the Shim Sham, but there's also the Big AppleThe FoxTranky Doo, and many others including newer dances such as the Jitterbug Stroll and The Maddison, with many variations.  They're basically group dances where all or part of the dance is done alone, in circles or lines.  They're a great way of learning jazz steps to incorporate in to your Lindy and great fun when everyone joins in at socials.
