JUNIOR Jazz & Improv

JUNIOR Jazz & Improv Details:

Often times, younger students are more quick to try “out of the box” methods than older students. They don’t have as many “rules” in their brain, so they are more willing to try new things. This will be a week full of training students how to think outside of the box, but still using basic music theory as it pertains to improv. Each student will have the opportunity to perform using new techniques that they’ve learned!
