Public Moves: Jazz Mix
with Raza Hammadi

Tue 15.07., 17.00h l MQ Forecourt l Free entry

Jazz Mix combines a lyrical, fluent and emotional movement language with influences from Ballet, Modern Dance and the Matt Mattox Technique. This way, Raza creates a fine and coherent mixture of different styles.

Public Moves dance classes take place outdoors every day – international and local instructors share their knowledge of everything from jazz and Bollywood dance to waacking in free outdoor classes. No previous experience is necessary, and all ages and levels are welcome!

Registration begins one day before the course starts at 11:00 a.m. via the calendar or by telephone on +43.1.523 55 58-19. If a class is ‘fully booked’, there is still the possibility of securing a remaining place on site. It's worth dropping by!
