Shim Sham教了好几回了，Tranky doo 也若干次了，几乎上海每周的Swing Kids Party都要把Shim Sham 和Tranky doo 跳一遍，而现在终于要轮到Big apple大苹果了！

   大苹果the Big apple，和Shim Sham以及Tranky doo一样，也是摇摆爵士舞的一个经典集体舞。所谓经典，就是历尽岁月穿梭，这个集体舞依然保留到今天。关于大苹果的具体历史也是众说风云，最主要的说法是差不多在1936年左右，这个集体舞因为位于美国南卡莱罗纳州的一个叫做大苹果俱乐部而得名。反正和大苹果纽约没啥关系。。

有意思的是，在查看了一些史料记载之后，发现这个集体舞在1936年左右在美国是相当的风靡一时，甚至有个酒吧，因为一群人跳大苹果过于激动，导致二楼酒吧地板坍塌，造成舞者受伤。一些小的酒吧，贴出告示，由于场地容量有限，谢绝跳大苹果。可见在那个时代，这个集体舞相当流行。

赶紧和小星Lucy一起学习大苹果吧，学完大苹果以后，我们每周的Swing Kids Party就开始要跳大苹果啦！！！ Swing Kids Party 从最早每周跳Shim Sham ,到每周Tranky doo, 马上就要the big apple了，激动不激动！

Downtown Swing Let’s Bite that Big Apple

The Big Apple is both a partner dance and a circle dance that originated in the Afro-American community of the United States in the beginning of the 20th century.

So just like Shim Sham and Tranky doo, the big apple is also a classic Swing routine dance. But it is more difficult than Shim Sham and Tranky doo. The routine is relatively long and with many movement and transition and that is why the big apple is the routine that we teach after Shim Sham and Tranky doo.

So for big apple routine, we will teach it in six classes. And each class is 1.5hours and that is 9hours in all. We hope that after our big apple class, you are really able to dance the big apple and on our Swing Kids Party, you can join everyone to dance the big apple.

Location:  Hong Kong Metropolis square 2nd floor, 489 South He Nan Rd .  

Venue:Rewu dance club

Direction:  metro Line 10 to Yu Garden Station, exit three and walk to south along south He Nan Rd. You will see M square just across the street.

Or metro Line 8 to Lao Xi Men Station. Walk east for about 200meters along East FuXing Rd.
