Description:

Grade 5 JAZZ

At this level, emphasis is placed on developing turns & leaps. Students will begin to learn the concept of engaging muscles from the center of the body. Exercises concentrate on the core muscle groups to help dancers improve their technique and control, as well as avoid injury. In addition, progressions, combinations, and conditioning exercises are designed to focus and develop vital techniques such as balance, control, extension, and flexibility. This will assist the students in learning new, more challenging skills including double pirouettes, jetes, turning stags, ronds versai sautés, and saut de basque. Upon successful completion of this BATD examination, students are eligible to progress to the Elementary Jazz level.

Syllabus:  Warm-Up, Barre, Floor and Center Practice, Skills Progressions, Music Appreciation, Dance Study, Showcase Routine, Cool Down, and Révérence.

Performance: London has organized multiple performance and demonstration opportunities for students, to build confidence and to gain experience of dance outside of the studio.  Please ensure that you support your child in these opportunities as they are an important part of their dance training.

Uniform:

The visual appearance of a dancer is as much a part of the art of Dance as the movement itself. Classroom attire is particularly important. It must allow the dancer complete freedom to experience movement while maintaining safety. It must also allow the instructor and observer the opportunity to view the alignment of the body and the movement itself. At the London School of Dance, we maintain a strict policy regarding the wearing of regulation uniforms and correct grooming. Please see below for the required uniform for this level.
