This class is the first formal introduction to Jazz choreography.  The class is only a half hour long and focuses on the choreography of Jazz combinations and dance.  You must take the Jazz Tech Level I class in order to participate in this class.  This class is a mixture of both recreational and competitive dancers.  This is a nice way to offer a recital class in Jazz as an optional addition and allows the Jazz tech class to focus on technique.
