Joel Hall has been teaching, refining this floor barre for 47 years, perfecting his unique, world-renowned style of Urban Jazz Dance—the Black experience of jazz dance. Our concentration is on breath, floor strengthening exercises, followed by center barre, choreography, isolations and progressions. Choreographies are based upon the human experience, street life and authentic expression of the spirit. This class is built for movers new to the Joel Hall style of Jazz. Mature movers are welcome and encouraged to take this class.
We will offer TWO 1-hour classes - for free - as part of the Chicago Live community programming with Navy Pier. Classes take place at the Mayfair Arts Center – Parking is available onsite: 8701 S. Bennett, Chicago, IL 60617
