About Our Dance Classes — Jazz, Hip Hop & Tap

Young Jazz Dancer at Danceworks Dance Studio, Vancouver WAJazz classes start at age 5-9 with a combination class of Ballet and Tap, and a one hour Jazz class starting at age 9. Jazz class consists of warm up, across the floor, and a combination. Different styles may be incorporated into the class — stylized ‘Broadway’ style, or a more contemporary lyrical style — as the student matures.

Lyrical Jazz is a mix of modern Ballet and Jazz, usually tells a story, and is performed to a piece of music with lyrics. Students love this dance form which brings out their creativity and emotional expression.

Street Jazz classes start at age 5; a mix of Hip Hop and basic Jazz moves.

Tap is taught within a combination class from ages 3-9. As the student progresses and masters basic skills they may transition into a rhythm tap class.
