THURSDAY: SPECIAL WORKSHOP! Fundraiser for Lindy Hop Legend Chazz Young ft Mandi Gould & Chachi
About: Chazz Young is a tap, jazz, and Lindy Hop dancer, was one of Norma Miller’s Jazzmen in the 1950’s, and is Frankie Manning’s son. He is a longtime friend of the Toronto Lindy Hop community and over the years has taught several workshops here.
A little over a year ago, Chazz Young experienced a life-altering medical event. While Chazz is doing much better, the financial burden of medical expenses and his inability to teach have made things very challenging for him. Mandi and Chachi will be teaching this workshop to help raise money to help him with some of his basic expenses. There is no fixed price for the workshop but your donations will be gladly received and sent to help him, via Frankie Manning Foundation.
Location: Dovercourt House (805 Dovercourt Rd)
Time: 6:30pm-8:30pm
