Modern jazz is a combination of modern dance and jazz dance that allows for many expressive possibilities. Jazz dance has developed through African, American and European influences. Originally, jazz was the predominant style of music, but today a wide variety of musical styles can be incorporated.

Basic techniques of classical and modern dance form the basis for a good and confident body awareness. The infectious music enables a highly dynamic style of movement. This also trains strength, flexibility and coordination. In contrast to modern dance, less work is done on the floor. The developed elements are also combined in a choreography to create an overall expression.

The focus of the training is on the elements of strength, flexibility and stamina that are essential for classical dance. Today, however, ballet lessons are not just about training classical dancers, but are also a basic training for all Western dance styles and an excellent method for improving posture, coordination and concentration. For us, ballet is the foundation for all dance styles. All other dance styles can build on the elements of classical ballet.

Modern dance has developed from classical ballet into a contemporary dance form since the beginning of the 20th century.

The focus of the training is on the basic techniques of classical and modern dance. These are prerequisites for good body awareness. This is combined with intensive floor work, supplemented by dynamic movement sequences that train strength, flexibility and coordination. Natural body language is important here. The developed elements are also combined in a choreography to create an overall expression.

The main focus of this course is on the joy of movement and the development and discovery of a wide range of movement possibilities. We prepare the body for the dance technique in a playful and fun way and leave plenty of room for creativity, spontaneity, a sense of rhythm and self-expression. Coordination, concentration and a healthy body awareness come naturally.
