Prerequisite: No prior jazz or musical theatre experience is required, though previous experience is helpful.
Dancers will explore musical theatre classics, primarily through jazz technique. Classes will begin with a cardio- and strength-based warm-up set to a Broadway playlist, followed by progressive jazz sequences across the floor to build dancers’ movement vocabulary and technical skills. Students will develop their jazz technique while exploring the style, energy, and performance qualities of musical theatre.
What to Wear: Please wear comfortable, form-fitting clothing. Avoid jeans and baggy sweatpants. Joggers, shorts, leggings, jazz pants, T-shirts, tank tops, crop tops, and sports bras are all great options. Dancers may choose to wear jazz shoes, sneakers, socks, half soles, or dance barefoot. For the end-of-semester performance, dancers will likely wear black shoes.
Performance: This is a performance-based class. Students will have the opportunity to perform in the end-of-semester show. Participation in the performance is optional.
Instructor: Wendy O'Byrne
Age Requirement: Students must be at least 17 years old or receive permission from the instructor prior to registration. Please email budance@bu.edu for more information.
Make-Ups & Missed Classes: We are under no obligation to accommodate all students for make-up classes or provide refunds for missed classes. We will make every effort to assist students who miss class due to special circumstances.
Membership: You must maintain your membership for the entire length of the class series in order to receive the member rate. If your membership changes during the series, you will be responsible for paying the remaining balance at the non-member rate.
