Thursday Solo Jazz Classes in London
Every Thursday at Steps Studios, Shoreditch — taught by Liane Wergen

If you want to dance on your own two feet rather than with a partner, this is the class to go to. Liane runs it every Thursday: rhythm, movement and the joy of jazz dance, for any level — total beginners and experienced dancers in the same room.

The studio has a mirror and — importantly in summer — air conditioning.

New to solo jazz?

Then just come. It's open level, so nobody is expected to arrive knowing anything, and it's aimed as much at people who have wanted to try solo jazz but felt too shy to walk in as at dancers who already know what they're doing. You'll get a bit of theory, footwork, improv technique and some choreography.

What a class looks like

Jazzy warm-ups.
Solo jazz steps and their variations.
Improvisation techniques, and challenges for playing with steps.
Rhythm, style and self-expression.
Studying classic clips.
Choreography that pulls the key ideas together.

What to bring: dance shoes and the energy to dance.
