Jazz, Modern & Ballroom

Jazz: Jazz is the people’s music and dance - it’s energetic and cool, explosive and understated all at once! Jazz dance appeals to everyone because of its energy, variety, and vitality; it is an excellent way to build strong technique as a dancer. This class introduces basic jazz technique and steps through an exploration of various styles, with music from blues and swing to pop, funk and rock. Combinations include simple turns, jumps, and leaps as well as syncopated rhythms, fun characters, and upbeat choreography.

Contemporary Fusion: This class fuses the emotional and fluid form of contemporary jazz with hip hop. Technique, strengthening and improvisation for the intermediate to advanced student.

Lyrical Modern Jazz:  Expressive dance which draws from each student's personal expression and draws on technique from ballet, jazz and modern.  Ballet is not required for this class, but is strongly recommended.
