Class Experience

Students will have an understanding of Jazz dance technique and vocabulary and how to rhythmically move to the beats and sounds of music.
I have been dancing for the past 26 years having trained in Ballet (American Ballet Theatre Curriculum), Jazz, Modern, Tap and Musical Theater. I have also performed in over 50 US Cities on tour with America's Got Talent Semi-Finalist Lightwire Theater, and at multiple regional theaters in shows such as The Little Mermaid, Disney's Newsies, Legally Blonde and more! I have been teaching for the past 11 years at dance studios, public schools and non-profit organizations. I have a Bachelor of Fine Arts Degree in Dance from the Conservatory of Performing Arts at Point Park University (Top 5 University Dance Program in the U.S.) where I also studied Dance History and Kinesiology for Dancers.
You should be in a space cleared from clutter and debris so it is safe to move about freely. Bring some water or a water bottle in case you get thirsty! Dance clothes that are comfortable to move in as well as dance shoes, socks or bare feet is fine.
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
50 minutes per week in class, and maybe some time outside of class.
Since Jazz dance is a physical activity, it is recommended there be adult supervision throughout class as there is always a level of risk and injury that can occur with any physical activity. Please have a space cleared of debris and clutter (minimum 4X4 ft square) so your learner can move about freely and safely. Having a water bottle or water near is important in case your learner gets thirsty during class (we will take a short, designated water break during class). Safety is my #1 priority as a teacher, so let's make sure your learner is in a safe environment so we can have fun dancing together!
