About the Style
Jazz dancing is a form of dance that originated in African American communities in the early 20th century. It was called “jass” or “jazz” because it combined elements from different styles of music, including ragtime and blues. The style is characterized by its fast pace, syncopated rhythms, specific steps and footwork, improvisational, and individualism.
Jazz dance has been around for quite some time, but it continues to evolve today! There are many different variations of jazz dancing out there—from modern jazz to ballet-based styles like lyrical jazz (also known as contemporary jazz). You’ll find some forms that blend different dance styles, like hip-hop or ballet, into their routines!
People often think of jazz as synonymous with swing dancing because they share similar roots in African American communities. They were both born out of necessity when slavery was abolished in America during the 19th century. However, the style has now evolved into one of the most expressive dance styles.
Benefits of Jazz Dance
Jazz dance is a great way to get into shape, express yourself creatively, and have fun!
It can be challenging to find the time and motivation to have an activity to go to. Jazz dance is a great alternative to traditional fitness activities, especially because it’s a fun way to get in shape while still being able to express yourself creatively.
It’s important for people to feel comfortable expressing themselves through movement because it helps them come out of their shells and connect with others. Jazz dance can help you do this by allowing you to dance through whatever emotions are running through your mind. This can be especially helpful to students who are teenagers. It helps them express themselves through art.
Jazz dancing also has many physical benefits for general health and well-being. It improves flexibility, strength, balance, and coordination; increases metabolism; reduces stress levels; improves posture; boosts energy levels; boosts moods; reduces anxiety levels; boosts confidence levels; helps relieve depression symptoms; and more!
