This upbeat and challenging combo class builds on the foundational skills introduced in Level 1 while continuing to develop technique, rhythm, coordination, and performance quality in both jazz and tap dance. Dancers will expand their vocabulary through more complex combinations, across-the-floor progressions, turns, jumps, and rhythmic tap patterns. Class focuses on strengthening musicality, flexibility, precision, and confidence while encouraging students to grow as performers.

Students will continue developing strong classroom habits and dance terminology while learning to pick up choreography more quickly and perform with greater expression and style. In jazz, dancers will work on sharper movement quality, transitions, and stage presence, while tap training will emphasize timing, clarity of sounds, and rhythmic accuracy. This class is designed to help dancers build technical skills and confidence as they prepare for more advanced dance training and performance opportunities. This class will participate in a brief recital alongside other dance classes at the end of the semester. Students from Jazz/Tap Level 1 MUST get permission from the instructor to register for this course prior to registration.

Comfortable fitted dancewear
