Modern/Jazz

Modern Theatre / Jazz is a rhythmic dance style which originated in America before travelling to the rest of the world. It is often seen on the stages of musical productions and is known for its theatrical qualities.  This highly energetic dance style uses travelling steps, high kicks, leaps and turns which all need strength and flexibility. Pioneers of Jazz dance include Bob Fosse whose creative choreography was instrumental in the success of movies and musicals such as Cabaret, Chicago and Sweet Charity.  Jazz dance is a key element of all vocational dance training.

We base our classes on technical Jazz dance training and we use elements of the Modern Theatre syllabus of the ISTD to guide and measure progress.

We offer Modern/Jazz classes to children from Age 4.
