Let's dance!  In this energetic, on-going beginner/intermediate class, dancers will work on jazz technique skills and practice picking up jazz choreography.  This class will be conducted at a beginner/intermediate pace and is geared towards dancers who have already had at least 2 years of jazz training OR have been placed by Miss Brandi into this course.

The first part of class will be dedicated to warm-ups and stretching, as these are critical skills all dancers need to learn how to do effectively on their own by their teenage years.  Teacher will demonstrate and give tips/corrections during this part of class in order to encourage proper body placement/alignment and technique so that students can make the most out of their warm-ups and stretches. The middle part of class will focus on proper technique on a variety of skills like kicks, turns, leaps/jumps.  At the end of class, we will work on picking up jazz choreography and integrating technique by learning short jazz dances.

Teacher will draw upon her 36+ years of dance experience (including time spent as a dancer on the University of Texas Dance Team) and her 24+ years of dance teaching experience to share personal dance anecdotes with students in order to enrich their understanding and love for the art of dance.  Students are encouraged to demonstrate in order to get personalized tips and corrections and are given ample opportunities to ask questions.  This class is dynamic and very student centered, so not one session will be identical to the next.
