Dance Company Jazz Class Information

Jazz DanceJazz dance began to take form in the 1940s, however up until the 1950s "jazz dance" was sometimes still associated with tap dancing because tap was known for being set to classical jazz music. The style of jazz dance really began to take shape when it started appearing in Broadway shows, movies, and television. Jazz dance is usually upbeat and dynamic, but it can be soulful and smooth.  Today, jazz is popular among dancers because there are no limits to how creative one can be with it. By altering classic jazz steps, one can accommodate his or her own personality and style.
