JAZZ

Experience the energy of jazz! 

Jazz is a popular and dynamic style of dance that emphasizes strength, stretching, rhythm and the foundations of ballet. This style is enjoyable for any dancer who wants to get moving and loves jamming out to fun, upbeat music! Students will work on their technical applications of leaps, jumps, tricks and turns through center floor work and progressions. They will also learn enjoyable choreography to continue their development of movement quality. As ballet technique is essential to jazz technique, enrollment in ballet class is required.
