In this class, taught by Erin Jennings, students are introduced to fundamental skills of modern dance with an emphasis on rhythm and musicality. This class gets students dancing with energy and expression to varied music from standard jazz tunes to theater and pop songs and whatever music they might choose. We start with stretches and strength building exercises and continue to expand body awareness through isolations and classical jazz movements. Dancers will move through the space and with center combinations. Focus is given to rhythm and learning how to interpret music with movement.
