Lyrical is a style of dance created by merging ballet and jazz. This style is usually danced at a faster pace than ballet but not as fast as jazz. Lyrical is performed to music with lyrics to inspire movements to express strong emotions the choreographer feels from the lyrics in the chosen song. Lyrical focuses on the expression of strong emotion, the style concentrates more on individual approach and expressiveness than the precision of the dancer's movements. Because of this, there is not as much focus on the choreography, and, in fact, the choreography often exists only as a general guide for the dancer, not as a routine that has to be exactly followed.
Ages: 9 & Up
Length: 45 Minutes - 1 Hour
