Jazz MVMNT Lab

JAZZ MOVEMENT LAB

Groovy follow-along Jazz movement sessions to drop into your body and enrich your quality of movement.

These sessions are designed for those moments when you simply want to press play, move, and learn by moving - no talking, no overthinking, and lots of dancing.

In these sessions the focus is on polyrhythms, polycentrism, coordination, and flow through short, embodied sessions you can return to whenever you want to reconnect with rhythm, groove, and yourself.

Pre-recorded sessions available online

Why polyrhythms & polycentrism?

Polyrhythms and polycentrism sit at the heart of Authentic Jazz dance. In Jazz it's all about the HOW we do what we do. Being able to express various movement layers at once will enrich your HOW.
