story time with frankie

we have the pleasure of having one of the great original lindy hoppers from whities lindy hoppers at the savoy club in harlem ..back in the day. the man who also invented the first aerial in 1935....mr. frankie manning. he is 93 and taught a few of our classes. had chatted with us a bit tonight.....it was wonderful to hear his stories and feel the great energy that come from him. he still remembers all the names of the dancers and musicians that he worked with...and tells captivating stories about those times.

i'm going to try agian to upload pics. it seems like i have to do one at a time so i'll just do a few.

more cabaret..





ok...nap time...i need to dance the year away later.
