Introduction

During this 2-day workshop you'll learn the classic Big Apple choreography. The workshop takes place 7th and 9th of January (Tuesday and Thursday) from 17:30 - 20:00.

The Big Apple routine

Big Apple is a classic solo jazz routine, featured in the film "Keep Punching". It was choreographed by Frankie Manning and performed by Whitey's Lindy Hoppers.

Nowadays it's a well-know, almost like "standard", routine many swing/jazz dancers know. Hence, it's often danced as a big crowd at festivals, socials, and other events. If there's one routine to learn after The Shim Sham, The Big Apple would be the one.

Join this workshop to learn The Big Apple - so the next time "The Big Apple Contest" song is played you can join the crowd!
