Authentic Jazz

Birkley Our jazz program is unique! No more prancing around like a preschooler - our adult jazz classes are badass. Most of the content is inspired by vernacular jazz of the 1910's through 1940's during the hot jazz and swing era. However, your instructors also take some inspiration from more modern sources like soul, funk, and the latest music videos of Beyonce and others! Men and Women are both encouraged to attend - and yes, guys actually DO take this class too.

Birkley Wisniewski and Julie Kiraly are your authentic jazz instructors. With an extensive background studying swing and jazz for nine years, and more lately african and tap, they have taught workshops across the prairies and have traveled to far places to learn from all the old masters of jazz. You are in good hands!
