Kendra’s Jazz Funk class is athletic, challenging, and full of heart. She trains her dancers like they’re preparing for tour, building the stamina, sharpness, and confidence to perform full out every time. Each class is a step toward your goals, whether that’s the stage, the industry, or your next personal best. For Kendra, dance is spiritual. She creates an uplifting, high-energy room where dancers feel free to connect to the music, to each other, and to something bigger than themselves. Class begins with a strong warmup to build strength and control, followed by a combination that is taught, broken down, and performed. Dancers leave inspired and a little closer to the artist they’re becoming.
