Our Jazz class begins with a warm-up and stretches designed to increase flexibility and strengthen the core. We work through progressions across the floor that are designed to increase athleticism, challenge dancers through weight & direction changes, and increase musicality. The class focuses on a broad spectrum of Jazz dance styles from Commercial Jazz to Broadway.

At Mass Motion Dance we place our goals, values and focus on the art of dance and all that it offers the dance student. The arts offers us, as a community, the opportunity for expression and a unique insight into the beauty of the world around us.
Dancer is one of the more challenging of the arts as it involves our total physical and mental commitment, challenges us in a way that is both exhilarating and exhausting. Meeting these demands teaches the dance student many lessons and leads them down a path of self-discovery.
In a world of technology and instant gratification, dance reminds the student tat great accomplishments require time, patience, courage and faith. Dancers must constantly reaffirm their commitment to themselves and their art.
The struggle is real, but the rewards are profound. Whether as a dance student or a dance enthusiast, the enrichment dance brings into our lives is what revitalizes our love and commitment to the wonderful art of dance.
Whether a student’s goal is fitness and recreation or a future career in dance, at MMD dancers will find classes that fit their objective as well as their schedule. Students may choose from a broad range of dance idioms such as ballet, modern, tap, contemporary, jazz, hip hop, Irish step and more.
