In this course we work with the techniques and basics of jazz dance, which are taught in a fun way. Children have a natural urge for movement and creativity. Jazz dance for kids meets these needs perfectly by combining powerful movements, creative expression and typical jazz elements such as turns and jumps.

In the warm-up, all parts of the body are warmed up and isolations are practiced. This is a characteristic of jazz dance and helps above all with coordination, as different parts of the body can be moved differently and in different rhythms at the same time (polycentricity & polyrhythm).

Leg and foot work are also learned in a playful way, as well as turns and jumps. This creates a basis for knowing and expanding on the techniques and characteristics of jazz dance.

In the choreography at the end, all the elements that were practiced during the lesson are put together - a dance is created and this gives the children a sense of achievement and self-efficacy.
