Jazz is a high energy class that teaches students proper jazz techniques such as isolation and improvisation. Large leaps, expressive footwork, and sharp turns are incorporated into routines. Students improve their coordination, balance, and flexibility. Technique is the basis of all fundamentals of dance, from holding your body correctly while performing, to executing skills properly in a routine. Students' technique is practiced and perfected in areas that include body alignment, arm/hand positions, turns/proper spotting, pointing toes, and turns and leaps positions.
