6. Jazz
is
a form of dance that showcases a
dancer's individual style and
originality. Every jazz dancer
interprets and executes moves and
steps in their own way. This type of
dancing is energetic and fun,
consisting of unique moves, fancy
footwork, big leaps and quick turns.
To excel in jazz, dancers need a
strong background in ballet, as it
encourages grace and balance.
