Jazz Dance Photos

Jazz dance has so many different genres within itself. There's broadway jazz or classic jazz dance from Robbins and Cole... Then there's fosse style jazz bordering on burlesque. Now we see lyrical jazz that borders on modern and ballet dancing, and pop jazz as you see in videos today. We've compiled our favorite jazz photos of the greatest jazz influences of all time that created all we know today about jazz dancing. Enjoy!
