Description:

Associate JAZZ

This is Year 2 of a 2 Year program.  This year, students will focus on learning their syllabus and strengthening their technique.

Associate Jazz is suitable only for those with previous dance training and successful completion of the BATD Advanced Examination or equivalent. This year is to build up the dancer's strength, and stamina, and increase their flexibility. These classes are to encourage you to push your boundaries as a dancer. Refined and advanced techniques are encouraged and a deeper understanding of engaging muscles from the center of the body is developed. Dancers are encouraged to apply this concept to all elements of the class from warm-up to centre and floorwork, to combinations and improvisation. 

The Associate Jazz Level is the first of three teacher accreditations of the British Association of Teachers of Dance.

Syllabus:  Warm Up, Centre Exercises, Floorwork Exercises, Creative Movement Variations, Combinations and Progressions, Dancers Isolation Amalgamation, Routine, Theory, an Examiner Amalgamation, Final Bow

The prerequisite is B.A.T.D Advanced Jazz or Equivalent

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.
