ADULT JAZZ FUNK
Adult Jazz Funk is a fusion of jazz and hip-hop dance styles. Beginning each class with a cardio warm up, we focus on mobility, strength, and alignment. We then jump into fun and funky choreography combining smooth, fluid jazz technique with sharp, funky hip-hop grooves. Adventurous beginners, as well as experienced movers and shakers, are welcome to join us for this exciting new class!

Performance shoes will be decided in class.
