Advanced Class

Vernacular Jazz Technique

In this special 4-week session, we’ll be focusing on developing our vernacular jazz technique. Working in the framework of basic moves we already know, we’ll dig into what makes certain moves work, focus on embodying groove, and refine our movement aesthetic.

This class will be tailored to those in the classroom, and is for intermediate to advanced level dancers.

Class Details:

  • Advanced Level: No audition required, but dancers should be confident in vernacular jazz basics. (For example: Open Level dancers who are regularly practicing outside of class; Audition Level dancers; dancers with confidence in vintage routines like the Tranky Doo, Big Apple, and Trickeration; or other similar experience.

  • $60 for 4 classes ($15 per class).
