Jazz dance is mainly a dance that pursues pleasure, liveliness and vitality.

3. The origin of jazz dance.

Jazz dance is an extension of African dance, which was brought to the United States by slaves and gradually evolved into a localized popular dance in the United States. Because of the slave trade that lasted for about 300 years, African blacks were fired in the United States and all over the world. In the new environment and new life, I live a miserable slave life. Although in this painful situation, I still haven't forgotten their music and dance.

No matter the joy, anger, sadness, joy and worship in life, whenever there is an opportunity, they will sing the songs of their hometown and dance their own national dances. Because of the constant innovation and invention of new dance steps, Americans are gradually interested in these rhythmic black dances. So over time, it gradually became jubilant and urban music and dance.
