About your performance class.
Jazz takes rhythmical elements and pairs it with groove and technique. From high kicks, to flashy turns, to jazz hands, to low grooves, you can explore the many different sides of jazz dance with us. You'll explore artistry in jazz in the rooted discipline and in the blending of other genres styles such as theatre jazz, jazz funk, and contemporary jazz.
