Class Description:

In this workshop, we will be teaching a short musical theatre jazz
combo to Slap That Bass from Crazy For You. This is a fast paced, beginner combo. We are prioritizing style and characterization over technique, so we welcome dancers and movers from all skill levels! When signed up for the workshop, you will be given access to a link to watch a video of us teaching you the combo from our house. You will have the duration of the festival to
learn the combo at your own pace, and submit it to us for feedback. We are looking forward to seeing you in the workshop!

Requirements/Materials Needed
