DANCE 153 - Jazz I
Credit Hours: 1 Credit Hour
Billable Contact Hours: 2
Prerequisites: RDG 090 and ENGL 090 or qualifying scores on accepted placement tests
Session Cycle: WI
The purpose of this course is to introduce the student to the study of jazz through movement, vocabulary and toning, isolations in jazz techniques and stretching and strengthening exercises inherent to this form of dance. Music will be utilized in each class to complement the jazz dance styles chosen for study. Emphasis is on personal growth with each class and assignment being a new challenge. Attire, terminology, and health and safety issues are explained and discussed. Written and skills tests are part of this course. Due to the fact that jazz dance is aerobic by nature, a medical release may be required. This class may be repeated for credit twice (total 3 credits).
