This super-fun class mixes jazz technique with modern hip-hop, the things you see in today’s best music videos and on the hottest concert tours. The 1-hour class starts with a series of jazz-based warm ups that will tone and lengthen your muscles from head to toe. Work your arms, core, buns and thighs, while stretching and lengthening to get long, lean dancer muscles. After we’re warm, each week we’ll learn a new combination to a pop or hip-hop song that new, fresh and current. The dances will blend jazz (think kicks, turns and jumps) with hip-hop (think booty shaking and “twerking”) to result in a fun, cardio workout. All levels welcome!
