Description
Focus points in Round 4, 2024 (August-September), taught by Jordan:
The Improvers class is for those who already have some experience with solo dancing. Here the focus is on increasing your Jazz step vocabulary and on feeling comfortable with a variety of rhythms and movements. All served alongside the jam circle culture. A communal space of protection and elevation, of unique creativity and exploration.
Level Guidance
You should have taken at least a beginner course in Solo Jazz previously.
Starting from August 5th, we will offer new weekly courses
in Lindy Hop, Balboa, Collegiate Shag, Solo Jazz and Tap.
Registration is now open!
Solo jazz, also called Vernacular Jazz or Authentic Jazz is often referred to as dancing without a partner, as opposed to dancing with a partner (as traditionally done in i.e. lindy hop, shag and blues). The dance itself has had many influences, mainly from dances invented and danced from the 1920’s – 1950’s: from cakewalks to Charleston, Lindy Hop, Blues and beyond.
Classes will focus on increasing your body awareness, improving quality of movement while appreciating musicality and rhythm. Working on your solo movements goes a great way towards improving your partnered dancing.
Flat shoes will be the best choice, preferably with a bit slidey sole and with a padded/cushioned insole, for better comfort. For beginners, regular sneakers would often be enough (just check if you can slide and turn in them without getting stuck or making a squeak sound on the floor).
Come and practice material from your class during Open Practice. It’s free and open for everyone! Consider bringing a partner to dance with though.
We have collected some of our favorite swing songs, which are good for practicing, and we put them together in a Spotify playlist
