SATURDAY
10.00-12.30: Foundations of Jazz – solo (2h30min)
From walking to flashy moves, this class will show you how to build up a jazz step through improvisation. By the end of this class, you’ll be comfortable playing with several classic jazz steps by using isolations, rhythms, and accents. The class ideas are simple to understand, and will be as challenging as you make them.
12.30-13.30: Lunch break (60 min)
13.30-16.00: Replacing Rhythms – Partnered Lindy Hop (2h30min)
In this class, we’ll train our rhythm first as an individual dancer, and then we’ll see how it works within the partnership. The class will get more challenging as it progresses and participants can choose what to focus on, so they work where they are comfortable.
