Jazz Basics

This class is geared toward older students who have had little to no jazz training and would like to learn basic jazz technique with older dancers.  Emphasis will be placed on developing strong lines, strengthening the dancer’s technique and understanding the body’s center of movement. Basic terminology, body alignment, and control in turns and traveling exercised will be stressed. This class is also appropriate for students new to dance who are looking to increase dance skills for use in theater.

Quote Marks
"What makes TDC feel like home is how comforting the environment of the studio is. All of the dancers, instructors, and families of everyone are always there to give a hand to anybody no matter how close they may be to each other. I know that I can go to anyone for anything without any hesitation even if it may not be about dance. TDC has become by second family and will always hold a special place in my heart."
