Beginner Solo Jazz - Box Steps with rhythm and slide variations

How can you make a movement jazzy? That's what Kris and Ali share with you in this clip. When dancing to swing and jazz music, you want to be able to fill the “space” between the beats with syncopated sounds and movements. Here, you get a simple but very enjoyable variation that you can try right away from home!
This is just a short snippet from our Solo Jazz Basics course, which has 6 classes as well as bonus content for over 7 hours of easy-to-follow instructions that you can use at home.
It's really easy for you to take advantage of our online program because it comes with our 100% money back guarantee so you can try it out risk-free. Also, our courses are follow-along videos with practice time, so you only need to press play and just enjoy the ride.
