  Jazz dancers Copyright: © HSZ

Jazz dance is a form of contemporary dance that originated in the USA. Originally the musical foundation was jazz music. Today, top hits from the pop charts are used. Jazz dance developed out of numerous dance styles in the US' multicultural society. A significant component are Afro-American dance styles, which came to America with the slaves in the 18th century.

 
Notes regarding the interim sports hall

We kindly ask for your understanding that due to the extraordinary temporary interim situation, the usual room climate cannot always be guaranteed.

Until the temperature control in the Interim Sports Complex is adjusted, sports classes continue as usual. We recommend dressing a bit warmer or bringing a jacket. The University Sports Center is actively working with a specialized firm to resolve the situation promptly. Thank you for your understanding and patience.
