Linden Community Schools

An intermediate and advanced dance class that teaches jazz, hip hop and lyrical will be an energetic and dynamic experience, designed to challenge dancers and elevate their technical skills across multiple styles. Dancers will dive into more complex jazz combinations, refining technique and exploring sharp, fluid, or stylized movements. In the hip hop portion, students will focus on mastering intricate footwork, isolations, and groove, all while keeping the attitude and energy typical of the style. The lyrical segment will emphasize emotional expression through dance, encouraging dancers to connect deeply with the music and incorporate smooth, flowing movements. Throughout the class, there will be a focus on performance quality, stage presence, and musicality, with choreography designed to push the limits of each dancer's ability. Personal feedback will be given to refine technique, and the class may end with a short combination or routine that integrates elements from all three styles.
