Spring Session
Open Level Special Session
Trickeration
Join us for this class session to learn the Trickeration - a challenging vintage jazz routine choreographed by Norma Miller in the 1930s. This routine was inspired by the chorus dancers at the Apollo Theatre, and was used by Norma Miller as an audition piece for her dance troupe. It’s full of classic jazz steps, with lots of tricky transitions and fun rhythms throughout.
Please note there is no performance associated with this class session - our focus will be on learning the jazz steps and working on our rhythm and quality of movement without worrying about a performance!

3 weeks of classes, Tuesdays 7:00pm - 8:15pm, March 31 - April 14th.
