Jazz dance is a versatile dance genre that showcases a dancer's individual style and originality.  Jazz is energetic and fun, consisting of unique moves, intricate footwork, big leaps and quick turns. To excel in jazz, dancers need a strong background in ballet, as it encourages grace and balance and provides the building blocks for all dance technique.

​
