Camp notes

Enhance your dance with this 6 week course. We strongly encourage dancers to take part in to help improve their performance quality and develop stronger technique.

Jazz technique is like the engine under the hood of jazz dance and can easily be applied to all styles — the bit that gives dancers control, sharpness, musicality and that delicious snap you see on stage. It’s the training behind the style, focusing less on choreography and more on the fundamentals that make choreography shine.

It typically includes:

✨ Alignment & posture — keeping the body ready for fast directional changes
✨ Turns, kicks, leaps & isolations — those signature moves need strength and precision
✨ Rhythm & musicality — jazz isn’t just movement, it’s movement with personality
✨ Strength, flexibility & stamina — especially in core, hips and legs
✨ Performance quality & style — sharp, smooth, sassy, lyrical… jazz has flavours

Where choreography teaches what to dance, jazz technique teaches dancers how to dance it well — with power, control and confidence
