Jazz Funk is a dance style of the body and mind. It can be lyrical in the sense of emotional interpretation. The movements are soft then hard then soft again. Emerging in the 1980's this dance form was brought about by the popularization and commercial influence of Hip Hop dance. Jazz funk, also called Street Jazz, borrows a lot of movement from other dance styles. |
