OUR CLASSES

JAZZ TECHNIQUE & JAZZ

Students can expect to learn classical positions and movements, control and connectivity of steps, turns, jumps and the dance vocabulary necessary to continue their studies in the dance arts.

These classes require a motivated learner, a performance level attitude from all students as these classes can be challenging.

 

​Jazz dance pushes the dancer to connect emotionally and physically to the music. Jazz dance has a huge range of styles: theater and Broadway jazz, classical, modern, lyrical, funk, African, contemporary and more.

LYRICAL & CONTEMPORARY

Lyrical jazz dance is a personal expression to the music. It incorporates elements of technique and traditional jazz but is much more expressive and intuitive. Often you are creating a dramatic pattern or you’re creating something that is personal to you.

​

​Contemporary dance is a dynamic and expressive form of movement that blends elements from various dance styles, including ballet, modern, jazz, and hip-hop. It emphasizes creativity, individuality, and emotional expression, often focusing on storytelling or abstract concepts.

HIP HOP & JAZZ FUNK

Hip-hop dance is characterized as hard-hitting involving flexibility and isolations, moving a certain body part independently from others. The feet are grounded, the chest is down, and the body is kept loose so that a dancer can easily alternate between hitting the beat or riding through the beat. This is in contrast to ballet or ballroom dancing where the chest is upright and the body is stiff. 

​

Dress Code: comfortable clothing you can move in, sneakers (not the same shoes worn daily)
