Jazz

Jazz is a type of dance that covers a wide range of styles. It employs multiple techniques such as classical ballet, contemporary dance and body language. In our classes we offer a varied range of Jazz styles:

• Classical jazz (with movements of contraction and elongation, full of strength and lyrical sensuality, derived from the bodily sensations caused by blues music and contemporary jazz)
• Modern Jazz (with rhythms of modern cuts using techniques of classical ballet and likewise complemented by styles of free expression and body aesthetics).
• Musical Jazz (As its name indicates a style focused on musicals)
• Street Jazz or funky Jazz (with aggressive and strong movements, with very sharp shots)
