A jazz class is a fusion of modern, jazz and ballet. These classes are directed toward giving each student a solid jazz foundation that focuses on exercises that comprise a full body warm-up and teaches how to work from the center of the body. The use of stretch and strength exercises promotes proper body alignment and execution.  This class introduces the dancer to a variety of styles and is a fun way to learn vocabulary, build on technique, strengthen the core and get your mind and body in shape.  Students are introduced to a variety of styles including lyrical, Latin, and hip-hop. (The serious-minded dancer is urged to compliment these classes with ballet training.)
