EXPLORE DANCE STYLES
JAZZ
DJD is dedicated to showing respect for the Africanist roots and aesthetics of jazz dance and prioritizes the foundational elements that were developed in and by Black American communities. Our jazz classes provide students with a physical history of the form with exploration in vernacular styles and accompanying Diasporic influences alongside codified forms. Students will explore some of the core styles of jazz dance, swing, funk, and Latin styles and will be encouraged to embody personal expression, musicality, and rhythm.
WEST AFRICAN
Join our well-traveled teaching team and immerse yourself in the rhythms, dances and songs of West Africa. Classes are accompanied by our wonderful drumming ensemble.
HIP HOP
We believe that the understanding of foundational styles and proper execution go hand in hand with personal style. Our instructors will bring their passion and dedication of hip hop culture to their students through the exploration of popping, locking, top rock, breaking, and video style.
TAP
Whether you are learning the basics of toe and heel drops, or are ready to shuffle off to buffalo and beyond, the Rhythm Tap classes at DJD provide solid technical foundations and fun rhythmic play.
BALLET BARRE
Ballet Barre is a full body workout done ballet style. We use the barre to support us through basic ballet exercises choreographed to energizing music. This workout will get you moving, sweating and mastering the art of Ballet. Strengthen and lengthen muscles, build grace, musicality, flexibility and a love of dance. Suitable for all ages and levels, graceful or not!
DIVA STYLES
Think Paula Abdul to RuPaul; this commercial style is inspired by all the jaw dropping divas across the generations; conditioning strength, body awareness and celebrating our limited-edition selves. No matter your skill level there is a place for everyone in this open level class. Be prepared to explore rhythm, coordination, choreography and attitude in this confidence boosting style borrowing from hip hop roots. We dance hard and sweat hard owning every moment of the choreography taught each week. We’re divas. We understand our worth; no matter how we identify, we are strong capable and deserving of our crowns.
