Open Level Jazz Technique & Conditioning

Jazz is a comprehensive class that begins with a thorough warm-up, across-the-floor, ending with a choreographed combination. This art form is informed by traditional African & European folk dances and was influenced by the 1600s enslaved Africans. Appropriate footwear includes Jazz shoes, bear paws, or barefoot.

Conditioning: exercises that improve your overall physical fitness, endurance and performance. These exercises increase your stamina, agility, speed, and enabling you to dance longer and more intensely.

Open Level: All Levels are welcome to participate in class: Beginning, Beg/Int, Intermediate, Int/Adv, and Advanced

Technique Classes focus on the placements of the body and pathways of movement that are ideal for executing the dance form. For example, Jazz technique incorporates the alignment of the body for a turn; Hip Hop technique incorporates a bounce or rock for grooving.
