Jazz

A style of dance characterized by the use of improvisational movements that are influenced by the rhythms and emotion of the music.  Jazz is a uniquely American art form.  It is generally regarded that the basis for good jazz technique is ballet, which builds the strength and coordination required.  We offer beginning jazz classes as well as advanced classes.  Of course, all students studying jazz are encouraged to take ballet classes though it is not required.  Note that all music and costumes (should the student be involved in a performance) are age appropriate.  Click here to view dress code.
