Boom Boom Pow

A jazz progression across the floor that combines big full-body shapes, clean lines and strong accents, starting with a lunge and a punch of the arms.

Hold every position, especially where the hips go forward. Fall out of it only at the last moment, when you have to step out. Control the move from the opening plié into a fully engaged supporting leg.

The in-between moves matter as much as the large shapes. Turn about in a double or triple pirouette, then jump as high as you can.
