Counting you in

Lyrical Jazz classes.

Graceful, musical movement built on jazz technique: turns, leaps, extensions and a lot of heart. Kids, teens and adults.

Flow, feeling, technique.

Lyrical Jazz pairs jazz technique with music you feel: turns, leaps and extensions set to songs where the movement tells the story.

It is the program for dancers who want stronger technique and more control, and that technique carries straight into their Bollywood routines. Lyrical Contemporary and Indian Contemporary pieces rotate in across the term.
