Intermediate/Advanced Movement Class with Jackson Liee

In this class you’ll dance, stretch, move and breathe! ...
With guided instruction and carefully curated music, this movement class encourages dancers to let go and have fun, dance, move, sing, and shout as we work, with a focus on both physical and emotional expression.

 

Jackson Liee is currently a choreographer and a member of the New Jersey Ballet Company. His dance training started at the age of 16 in his home country of Brazil, and he futhered his training in Chicago, where he graduated from The Joffrey Ballet Academy of Dance.

For 6 years, he has taught all ages and levels at national and international ballet schools. In 2019, he became an ambassador for Capezio in Brazil, performing around the country and teaching Ballet, Jazz, Contemporary, modern and movement classes at numerous festivals.

Jackson’s classes focus on developing strength and technique as a dancer, with focus on discipline and perfecting your talent. Above all, Jackson believes that working hard and believing in yourself is the key to a bright and successful career in the dance world.
