Junior Jazz

Jazz Foundations (Kindergarten & Year 1 equivalent)

For our youngest jazz dancers, we offer ‘Jazz Foundations’. This is a class combined of students in Pre-Primary and Primary level (Kindergarten and Year 1 at school). While this class is combined, our fantastic teacher Miss Bree is able to adapt the class and exercises to welcome new dancers and to further develop students technique.

Grade 1 & 2 Jazz (Year 2 & 3 equivalent)*

At Grade 1 & 2 Jazz levels LCDC introduces the Comdance Modern Jazz syllabus to dancers to build up their jazz technique and repertoire. Grade 1 & 2 Jazz classes are their own individual class, working on a different level of syllabus appropriate to students age and abilities.

Jazz exams become available from Grade 1 for students who have grasped the concept of jazz and show an understanding of the style and music.

Often Grade 1 & 2 Jazz classes combine for the end of year concert dance, as jazz pieces are especially fun with more dancers!

*Please note that these are guidelines only. Teachers will assess students and recommend the appropriate grade class for them on an individual basis, taking into account their maturity, ability to develop the work etc.
