JAZZ

Dallas Ballet Center has many classes to offer students who are interested in jazz. Under the direction of Peggy McCaslin, the jazz division receives a solid technical foundation. Classes are fun and fast-paced and are offered to students ages 8+. Jazz is an excellent way to develop rhythm, coordination, dexterity, and agility that carries over to other dance disciplines, academics, and athletics. They improve concentration and a student's ability to grasp and execute combinations and instructions quickly. Students not only learn jazz technique but also develop self confidence, stage presence, and performance skills. 

 

LYRICAL JAZZ

Lyrical dance is a combination of jazz and ballet. Classes are offered to students age twelve and older who have had at least two years of ballet training and current enrollment in a ballet technique class. Jazz is not required but is recommended.
