Turns and Leaps Classes

All About Turns & Leaps at UDA

The Turns and Leaps class dissects these two technical movements by breaking down basic building blocks and fine tuning technique so one can master a variety of turns and leaps which are used in jazz and in choreography. Great emphasis will be placed on the body’s center, from which all movements begin and end, making it possible to maintain balance and control while executing turns, high extensions and powerful leaps. Spotting techniques will be studied to properly execute a variety of turns to reduce the dizzying effect of repeated rotation.

Turns and Leaps is a non-recital class.
