About vernacular Solo Jazz
If you thought Lindy Hop was fun, you haven’t tried solo jazz yet! 😉 Many of you will know the Shim Sham, might have learned the Tranky Doo or even tried the Big Apple. Routines danced for many years world wide. But there is way more to it! Diving into the jazz steps, rhythms and ways to use your body on your own you’ll discover the freedom solo jazz gives you, allowing you to improvise on the dance floor, just reacting to the music you hear.

About Blues dancing
Blues is an easy going dance full of groove, improvisation and musicality. Originated in the African American culture, it all started in the juke joints dancing the night away. The blues music is rich in its diversity. Going from the Delta & Mississippi blues, to Chicago blues into the jazzy New Orleans Blues, there are many blues idioms to be discovered along with it!
