How Do You Learn Jazz Dance Moves?
Jazz dance refers to the energetic and fluid dance moves popularized by African-American dance troupes and dance-oriented Broadway hits like “A Chorus Line.” This funky and fast-paced dance style is challenging to learn, but it offers the chance for a potential dancer to express their creativity and unique style. Loosen up! Do preliminary stretching exercises and tone your body up in preparation for jazz dance lessons. To learn jazz dance moves, a fluid, limber body is necessary, so get yourself ready to perform with warm-up exercises before your first lesson. Master basic jazz dance moves like single rotation turns and split leaps with lots of practice. Reinforce your practice by watching instructional dance videos. Take classes at your local college, community center or Learning Annex. Some great dance teachers are also available through magazines like Backstage if you’re in New York or L.A. or through ads in the alternative weekly newspaper in your town.
