Description: Hours: Six hours activity per week Description: An immersion and progression into Jazz dance practices, history, and culture. Activities will focus on the embodied knowledge and roots of jazz dance as they transformed in the mid- to late-20th century as an African diaspora art form. Students will examine how the end of the golden age of musicals (1943-1965), the invention of television, changing popular music styles, and social movements impact the development and practice of jazz dance. We will also focus on the aspects of race, gender, sexuality, and power that contributed to this process of development, commodification, and appropriation. Effective fall 2022, changed from PADA 353
