Intro to Jazz Dance Series

Discover your rhythm, expression, and style in our Intro to Jazz Dance Series — four unique 6-week courses designed for adults ready to explore the energy and technique of jazz dance. Each course builds a solid foundation in posture, isolations, turns, kicks, and movement coordination, while emphasizing musicality, confidence, and performance quality. You’ll learn the core elements of jazz technique, including arm and foot positions, across-the-floor progressions, and classic jazz vocabulary at the barre and in the centre. What sets each course apart is the style of jazz dance being explored. From Broadway flair to commercial edge, each style carries its own rich history and choreography, giving dancers a well-rounded understanding of jazz as both a technical and expressive art form. Whether your goal is to train like a performer or simply move with more confidence and style, our Intro to Jazz Dance Series will help you connect with your inner artist — no experience required. Take all four courses in any order.

Intro to Jazz: Classic

This course explores the roots of jazz dance through its clean lines, rhythmic accents, and dynamic precision. Dancers will learn classic techniques at the barre and in the centre, developing posture, coordination, and control. Expect upbeat, structured movement combinations that build strength and musical awareness — a perfect starting point for anyone new to jazz dance or returning to fundamentals.

Who this course is for: Beginners looking to understand jazz technique at its core and develop solid, transferable dance skills.

Rooted in: Classic jazz dance technique from masters like Luigi, Gus Giordano, and Matt Mattox.
Focus: Clean lines, precision, rhythm, isolations, syncopation, and musical clarity.
Music: Traditional Jazz, or upbeat pop with clear counts and accents.
Movement quality: 

• Sharp, dynamic, rhythm-driven

• Emphasis on placement, control, and technique (turns, kicks, leaps)

• Uses classic Jazz vocabulary — pas de bourrée, pivot turns, jazz walks, battements, etc.

Goal: To build strong technique, body awareness, and clean execution.

Looks like: What you’d see in a Broadway show or a 1980s jazz class — think “A Chorus Line”, “Chicago”, “Fame” or even “Flashdance”.
