JAZZ CLASSES

With roots firmly planted in mid 20th Century New Orleans and the Broadway musicals of the time, jazz is known for its fun, upbeat and physical characteristics. Much like the musical style, it lends itself strongly to improvisation. 

Students work solidly towards examinations for both ballet and tap all year at Steps, so jazz classes offer an opportunity for fun, syllabus-free lessons, brimming with creative energy and plenty of routine development for performances.

Depending on the teacher, classes may encompass Broadway, commercial, lyrical or funk, offering teachers and students a chance to showcase their individual ideas and skills in choreography.
