Put a spring in your step with our Classic Jazz Pop Up Class this April! 👯

📆 April 3, 10, 17 & 24 • South Campus at Meadowbrook
Taught by Christine Colby-Jacques • Wednesdays, 6:00-7:00 pm

➡️ This class will feature a brief warm up from the Luigi (Eugene Louis Faccuito) Jazz Dance Technique. Based in ballet, Luigi Jazz Dance Technique is a restorative technique that builds strength, promotes stretching and focuses on moving from the inside out. Exercises are done in the center without the aid of a barre. The combinations in Classic Jazz will reflect the styles of Luigi, Bob Fosse and Matt Maddox - all masters of classic jazz and musical theatre dance era. This class is suitable for dancers and non-dancers alike, whether recovering from an injury or wanting to maintain a certain level of fitness for fun or in between performance seasons.
