Generally speaking, the term "modern'jazz" is used to define a course that allows the combination of two currents: jazz and modern dance.

Jazz originated in New Orleans in the southern United States in the 19th century. In music as in dance, it took off on stage and then in the cinema. Charleston, swing and rock belong to the great family of jazz dance.

Modern dance refers to a set of styles and brings together the new concepts of the 20th century. It uses gravity, body weight, falling, contact with the ground... The different techniques seek to enhance the dynamics of movement, to control the energy through breathing, and to use the space in all its resources. Modern dance does not hesitate to be enriched by other universes: traditional dances from all horizons, cinema, painting, circus, etc. The music is even mixed with other sound effects: voices, noises, or simply with moments of silence. It leaves room for improvisation, and goes out of theatres and into original places such as public spaces, museums, station halls, streets, or roofs of buildings.
