Rooted in the history of jazz dance and music, DJD is constantly innovating and evolving this art form. DJD was founded to re-ignite an appreciation and love for the traditional values of jazz dance. The original company consisted of four dancers and an artistic director intent on sharing their vision of jazz with others. Established in 1984, DJD has carved a niche for itself as one of Canada’s most unique dance companies.
The Professional Training Program (PTP) at DJD is an eight-month, tuition based, intensive training experience that is dedicated to the development of skilled and knowledgeable jazz dance artists. Comencing each September, the program runs half days, Monday to Friday. Participants study Jazz, Ballet, Tap, Jazz Improvisation, West African, Traditional Afro-Cuban Forms, Swing, Latin, Core Strength, Jump Rhythm Jazz Style, DJD Repertoire, Jazz History and Jazz Music Appreciation.
