This course will focus on what you need to hear to be able to listen and connect to music. If you understand these things, you will be able to express yourself as a dancer in a way that you cannot otherwise. During this class, we will cover elements of Form, Structure, Dynamics, Ear training, Musical hooks, and Harmony, and how understanding each of these can take your connection to the dance to the next level. Michael Sherman, co-founder and bandleader of the Vintage Jazz Collective, will be playing and demonstrating examples of each of these topics to provide an engaging one-time only class.
Future Classes
Generally, class sessions are 4 weeks long and begin the first
