This beautiful, expressive style of dance is often performed to slower, gentler
music. It is called “Lyrical” because its movements are meant to tell audiences a kind
of story through dance. The form combines Ballet techniques with the Jazz and Modern styles influencing the movements. An emotionally driven dance form, “Lyrical” depends greatly on the passion and interpretation of the performer, and not just the movements themselves. This class is an intermediate level class that requires a comprehensive understanding of both traditional ballet and jazz. “Lyrical” is added to some advanced Ballet and Jazz classes.
