Jazz Basics

This class is geared toward older students who have had little to no jazz training and would like to learn basic jazz technique with older dancers.  Emphasis will be placed on developing strong lines, strengthening the dancer’s technique and understanding the body’s center of movement. Basic terminology, body alignment, and control in turns and traveling exercised will be stressed. This class is also appropriate for students new to dance who are looking to increase dance skills for use in theater.

Quote Marks
"One of my favorite times of the year is Nutcracker. It takes lots of hard work and preparation but it always pays off. I always wait eagerly to see what parts I and the other girls receive. It is an exciting time. During Nutcracker, I also love to be a role model to the younger girls. It is always fun to see them dance and help them when they need it. Nutcracker brings the TDC family together in so many ways. It is the greatest time of the year."
