Let’s brush up on our jazz technique and work our musicality! Bringing a commercial approach to contemporary jazz we will work our turns, jumps and extensions in phrase work applicable to today’s working contemporary dancer. Working with intricate timing and driving music we will work for groove, fluidity and attack while striving for accuracy. Starting with improvisation as a warm up we will feel what it’s like to be on and off our leg and work with both sensations to create continuous movement. Followed by a guided warm up to stretch and strengthen our bodies for phrase work that will move us in and out of the floor and will challenge our ability to change directions and intention quickly. Although classes are geared towards more intermediate and advanced dancers, of course all are welcome.
