Jazz

Introduction

Jazz is a new dance lesson taught at Footloose. Jazz is a solo dance style, which will not focus on partner work. If you’re unsure whether Jazz fits you, please come to the DSTO or open lesson weeks to try out this course.

The dance style

Jazz dance is a form of dance that combines both African and European dance styles. This high-energy dance has a liveliness that sets it apart from traditional dance forms, such as classical ballet and modern dance. Jazz is very upbeat and energetic. It features sharper and more defined movements, with a focus on precision, rhythm, timing, and musicality.

Course progress

Jazz 1 is for people who have no experience in partner dances. Jazz 2 is fitted for people who already have experiences with Jazz or have a technique foundation. If you are not sure what level you are, please come to the DSTO or join the open classes to try out the two levels.
