Experience The Fun Of Jazz Dancing
Jazz is enjoying a new comeback with movies such as “Chicago” displaying it as an exciting art form. It used to be that jazz was enjoyed exclusively by professional Dancers, but this movie has sparked interest in the general public for this wonderful, exciting dance style. Even if you are new to dancing you can enjoy the dance and music of jazz.
A prior background in ballet will allow you to have an advantage over the rest of the class. However, you will be having fun rather than wanting to compete against your class members. In fact, you may not even be doing the same steps as the other students when you are doing freestyle dancing.
Jazz does not necessarily lay too much emphasis on conformity, but rather on uniqueness and style. Your instructor will show you the basic moves and the dance routine for a certain dance but you can add your unique style to this.
Clothing is an important factor to consider as comfort is paramount for this flexible style of dancing. The best clothing is still the standard leotards and tights. You can wear these with a loose shirt or camisole and jazz pants. It is important to remember to wear proper footwear for jazz dancing like boots, sneakers or Dance Shoes. You can also wear legwarmers if you want to.
You will often experience all types of jazz, hip-hop, show tunes and even ballet music when you take jazz classes. The reason for this is because jazz is made up of many blends of dance styles and music. Initially you typically begin by doing warm up exercises and then proceeding to stretching, suspension and isolation movements.
You will learn about the basic turns in jazz as well. For example chaines, piques and pirouettes, also the leaps like tour jetes, and grande jetes, and do not forget the famous jazz walk.
After you have mastered the basics, you will be able to add your unique style to the dance. This should allow you to be one of the innovators in the evolution of jazz. In fact, you will probably thoroughly enjoy the colorful world of jazz as it brings vibrancy and enjoyment into your life.

How long does it take to be able to dance jazz?
I was wondering how long it takes to be able to know how to jazz dance appropriately. I have a year to learn it as I am auditioning to get into a few acting schools. Any advice?
Well that depends greatly on your ability to move. Some can learn in a year , some it takes alot longer… But if you work hard (really hard) and focus on your technique, a year should be plenty.
