Welcome to 20 Moves in 20 Days: Beginning Jazz Dance! I'm so excited to be on this journey with you, and just delighted that you are interested in learning jazz. Consider doing the daily warm-up stretch routine each time you want to learn a new move, to help prevent injury, increase flexibility, and feel great! I've attached a jazz terminology sheet for you so that you can build your jazz vocabulary, if you'd like. If at any time you have questions, please don't hesitate to reach out for support! You can email me at lindseydinneenofficial@gmail.com, or visit my social profiles on Instagram or Facebook (@lindseydinneenofficial). See you in the course!
Use this stretch routine on a daily basis to get your body moving, and be fully prepared to learn a new move!
learn the grapevine as a four-step traveling dance, alternating out, back, out, front with cross steps, while bending knees and flowing arms for line and wedding dance contexts.
Master the Lindy ball change, a step-together-step with a light bounce, including cross-behind variations and arm styling to drive an energetic chassé ball change sequence.
Master chaînés, a continuous chain of turns, by alternating steps right and left and facing front and back. Focus on alignment, balance, and progress, practicing slowly before increasing speed.
Master the torch jump by traveling across, using two steps. Jump from a toe-connected retrograde position with opposite arms, land on the same foot.
Have you always wanted to learn to jazz dance but not felt ready to jump into a jazz class? I completely understand, and that's why I created this online course for you! In just 20 days, you will learn 20 different jazz moves that will introduce you to all the essential beginning steps for a classical jazz class. I walk through each one slowly and clearly, so that you know exactly how to execute each new step, and even provide a couple camera angles to demonstrate. After 20 days, you will emerge from this course at a beginning jazz dancer's level (I teach ALL of the steps in this course that I do in my community college Jazz Dance 101 course!)!
