Lyrical Jazz

Lyrical Jazz dancing is a blend of many dance styles and cultures. It has a strong ballet base combined with African, Caribbean, Latin, street, and Hip Hop dance. Lyrical Jazz dance focuses on flexibility, musicality, isolations, and strong movements. To excel in lyrical jazz dance, the dancer must master ballet technique because it consists of slower movements that strengthen the body and improve balance. Lyrical Jazz classes at Prisma will focus on jazz technique, including strengthening, conditioning, and flexibility. Students will also be taught numerous jazz and lyrical steps, learn how to use these steps while traveling across the studio floor, and also learn how to incorporate these movements while working on choreography.
