Jazz - Adult/Teen

About this event

Teen/Adult Jazz is designed for teens and adults who are ready for a more challenging jazz class with a faster pace and greater emphasis on technique, musicality, and performance quality. Classes include warm-ups, stretching, isolations, floor work, turns, jumps, and across-the-floor combinations, along with choreography that encourages dancers to develop greater coordination, precision, expression, and confidence. While dancers do not need extensive jazz experience, this class is best suited for students who already have some dance background or are comfortable learning choreography at a quicker pace. Younger dancers and students who are completely new to jazz may be better suited to Youth Jazz, which provides a more introductory approach and helps build the skills needed to progress into higher-level jazz and musical theatre classes.
